Conservation joinery in Crosby
Traditional Putty Glazing in Crosby is rarely a catalogue job. Around here it is Georgian merchant housing, dockland terraces and Victorian resort villas, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. Irish Sea exposure with salt-laden prevailing wind sets the pace of decay, and salt-accelerated finish breakdown on west-facing elevations is how it shows up first. In practice that means 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. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
Something particular to this area: Liverpool's Georgian quarter carries strict conservation-area window controls.

Verified client, Merseyside“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”

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.
What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
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.
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.
