Church and Chapel Joinery across North Yorkshire
What makes Church and Chapel Joinery work in North Yorkshire is usually invisible once it is finished. Because the area is mainly medieval York frontages, Dales stone farmhouses and Victorian coastal resorts, no two openings measure quite the same. Because of severe North Sea exposure on the coast and upland cold in the Dales, we see salt and wind damage at the coast, frost damage inland more often here than in most of the country. This is really a job about ecclesiastical work where the tracery geometry has to be exact.
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.
A detail specific to this area: York's historic core requires close matching of historic glazing bar profiles.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover North Yorkshire?
Yes. We cover the whole of North Yorkshire including York, Harrogate, Scarborough, Middlesbrough and the surrounding villages. York's historic core requires close matching of historic glazing bar profiles. Because severe North Sea exposure on the coast and upland cold in the Dales, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
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.
