Conservation joinery in Dunfermline
The hard part of Slim Cavity Glazing in Dunfermline is not the making, it is the measuring. You are mostly dealing with sandstone tenements, Georgian New Town terraces and post-war housing schemes around here, so openings vary more than people expect. Set against cold wet winters with strong westerly exposure, most joinery here eventually shows sash and case failure in tenement stock and cill decay at stone junctions. Everything we do here comes back to getting a sealed unit into a historic sightline without bulking it out.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
Bear in mind for this area: Scottish sash and case construction differs from English box sash and needs matching.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
