Conservation joinery in Hythe
Sash Window Replication is one of those jobs in Hythe where the survey decides everything. With naval-era terraces, New Forest timber-framed cottages and 1960s coastal estates making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. Locally you are contending with high wind-driven rain off the Solent, so water ingress at head and jamb on exposed south-west elevations is the fault we are called out to. This is really a job about copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
One local point to factor in: conservation stock in Winchester and Lymington usually requires slim-profile glazing.

What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
Is the timber certified?
All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
