Conservation joinery in Chipping Norton
Most Timber Frame Repair enquiries we take in Chipping Norton start with an opening that is not a standard size. Given the Cotswold stone cottages, Georgian college-town terraces and new-build fringe estates that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. The exposure here is river-valley mist and prolonged autumn damp, which is exactly the condition that causes rot behind stone reveals where water tracks in at the joint. The part that matters is splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Send us sizes and a photograph and we will come back with a fixed written price.
One local point to factor in: listed and curtilage-listed properties are unusually common in the historic centres.

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

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 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 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.
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 work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
