Conservation joinery in Todmorden
The Sash Window Replication we make for Todmorden is set out from a survey, not a size chart. You are mostly dealing with millstone grit terraces, weavers' cottages and Victorian civic frontages around here, so openings vary more than people expect. 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. The detail we will not compromise on is copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
A local consideration we always raise: 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.”

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.
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.
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.
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.
