Conservation joinery in Portishead
Ask three firms about Slim Cavity Glazing in Portishead and you will get three different answers. With Bath stone Georgian terraces, Levels farmhouses and Victorian seaside stock making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. Add very high rainfall with standing water across the Levels to that and prolonged saturation causing frame distortion and sash binding becomes the usual trigger for replacement. The detail we will not compromise on is getting a sealed unit into a historic sightline without bulking it out.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.
Local factor worth flagging early: Bath's World Heritage status makes joinery detail subject to close scrutiny.

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

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