Conservation joinery in Crawley
Listed Building Joinery around Crawley is a different job from one street to the next. Local stock is dominated by Sussex flint cottages, Regency seafront terraces and postwar new town housing, which sets the sizes and profiles we work to. Because of strong coastal exposure with salt spray inland of the shoreline, we see finish erosion on seaward elevations within a few years of coating more often here than in most of the country. What you are paying for is replication accurate enough to satisfy a like-for-like condition.
Nothing is ordered until someone has stood in front of the opening with a tape. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
One local point to factor in: seafront properties need a shorter recoating cycle than inland equivalents.

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

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 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.
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 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.
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.
