Conservation joinery in Folkestone
If you are looking at Paint Analysis and Matching in Folkestone, the timber is only half the decision. Property here runs to weatherboarded Kentish cottages, oast conversions and coastal terraces, and each of those brings its own set of dimensions. The weather does the rest: salt-laden easterly wind along the coast here, and coating breakdown on exposed elevations and corrosion of ironmongery as the predictable result. Everything we do here comes back to matching the historic colour rather than defaulting to brilliant white.
The site visit comes first, because assumptions made in an office get paid for on site. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Worth knowing locally: coastal exposure makes finish specification more important than timber species.

Feedback collected directly from completed projects. Full written references are available on request before you commit.
“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, Kent“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, Kent“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”
Verified client, KentFolkestone questions
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.
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.
Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
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 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.
