Conservation joinery in Shipley
The Listed Building Joinery we make for Shipley is set out from a survey, not a size chart. You will find mostly millstone grit terraces, weavers' cottages and Victorian civic frontages in this area, and it moves as it ages. Pennine exposure with hard frost and horizontal rain is the local complication, and frost damage at end grain and blown joints on exposed hillside stock is what it eventually causes. What you are paying for is replication accurate enough to satisfy a like-for-like condition.
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.
Something particular to this area: gritstone reveals hold water against frames, so drainage detail is critical.

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

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.
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.
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.
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 price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
