Sash Window Replication across Dorset
Nothing about Sash Window Replication in Dorset is settled until someone has been on site. Around here it is Purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort villas and thatched inland villages, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. The weather does the rest: exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load here, and rapid finish failure and fixings corrosion within a few seasons on seafront stock as the predictable result. In practice that means copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
Worth knowing locally: Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Dorset?
Yes. We cover the whole of Dorset including Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Dorchester and the surrounding villages. Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade. Because exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
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.
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.
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.
