Conservation joinery in Wantage
Church and Chapel Joinery around Wantage is a different job from one street to the next. 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. Then there is river-valley mist and prolonged autumn damp, which reliably produces rot behind stone reveals where water tracks in at the joint given enough seasons. What you are paying for is ecclesiastical work where the tracery geometry has to be exact.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
Worth knowing locally: listed and curtilage-listed properties are unusually common in the historic centres.

“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.”

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.
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.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
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.
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.
