Conservation joinery in Royston
What makes Timber Frame Repair work in Royston is usually invisible once it is finished. Because the area is mainly garden city stock, Georgian market town frontages and commuter-belt detached housing, no two openings measure quite the same. The weather does the rest: moderate rainfall with cold inland frosts here, and frost damage to end grain and swelling on unbalanced-finished units as the predictable result. In practice that means splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
The site visit comes first, because assumptions made in an office get paid for on site. Tell us what you are working with and we will put a fixed figure in writing.
Local factor worth flagging early: garden city areas carry design codes that restrict window style changes.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, Hertfordshire“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, Hertfordshire“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”

How do you handle glazing?
Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
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.
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.
