What we see in Tyne and Wear
Getting Listed Building Joinery right in Tyne and Wear depends on detail that a price list cannot capture. Because the area is mainly Tyneside flats, Georgian Grainger Town frontages and coastal terraces, no two openings measure quite the same. The exposure here is cold North Sea exposure with high sustained wind, which is exactly the condition that causes wind-driven rain penetration and rapid coating loss on seaward elevations. What you are paying for is replication accurate enough to satisfy a like-for-like condition.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Send us sizes and a photograph and we will come back with a fixed written price.
One local point to factor in: Tyneside flat stock has a distinctive paired-door detail worth replicating exactly.

Do you cover Tyne and Wear?
Yes. We cover the whole of Tyne and Wear including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, Gateshead, South Shields and the surrounding villages. Tyneside flat stock has a distinctive paired-door detail worth replicating exactly. Because cold North Sea exposure with high sustained wind, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
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 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.
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.
