Conservation joinery in Holt
We take a fair volume of Sash Window Replication work across Holt, and almost none of it repeats. Local property is overwhelmingly flint and pantile cottages, Georgian merchant houses and coastal resort stock, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. Locally you are contending with exposed North Sea easterlies with salt-laden wind, so salt damage and finish erosion on east-facing coastal elevations is the fault we are called out to. What you are paying for is copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
A local consideration we always raise: flint walls give minimal reveal, so weathering detail carries the whole load.

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

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.
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 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.
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.
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.
