Conservation joinery in Horncastle
If Traditional Putty Glazing in Horncastle were straightforward, there would be a stock size for it. Local property is overwhelmingly Georgian Stamford limestone, fenland farmhouses and coastal resort bungalows, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. The exposure here is low rainfall with severe exposed easterly wind off the North Sea, which is exactly the condition that causes wind-driven rain ingress and sand abrasion on coastal finishes. This is really a job about genuine linseed putty lines rather than a bead pretending to be one.
A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.
Local factor worth flagging early: Stamford is one of England's most tightly controlled conservation towns.

Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
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.
