Conservation joinery in Highworth
The Timber Frame Repair we make for Highworth is set out from a survey, not a size chart. The building stock is chalk-downland cob and thatch, Bath stone terraces and garrison housing, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. Locally you are contending with exposed downland wind with driving rain, so wind-driven water forced past worn weatherseals is the fault we are called out to. The detail we will not compromise on is splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.
Worth knowing locally: cob and thatch properties need breathable finishes rather than film-forming coatings.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, Wiltshire“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, Wiltshire“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.
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.
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 deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
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.
