Conservation joinery in Knaresborough
There is no standard version of Timber Frame Repair in Knaresborough, which is rather the point. You are mostly dealing with medieval York frontages, Dales stone farmhouses and Victorian coastal resorts around here, so openings vary more than people expect. Locally you are contending with severe North Sea exposure on the coast and upland cold in the Dales, so salt and wind damage at the coast, frost damage inland is the fault we are called out to. What we concentrate on is splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
Local factor worth flagging early: York's historic core requires close matching of historic glazing bar profiles.

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

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 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.
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.
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.
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.
