Section Drawings for Consent across County Durham
The hard part of Section Drawings for Consent in County Durham is not the making, it is the measuring. You are mostly dealing with colliery terraces, Georgian Durham city stock and Pennine stone housing around here, so openings vary more than people expect. With cold upland winters with heavy rainfall in the mix, frost and saturation damage on unmaintained painted softwood is a question of when rather than whether. The part that matters is drawings detailed enough for a case officer to approve first time.
The site visit comes first, because assumptions made in an office get paid for on site. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
A detail specific to this area: Durham's cathedral setting carries World Heritage-level design scrutiny.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover County Durham?
Yes. We cover the whole of County Durham including Durham, Darlington, Hartlepool, Stockton-on-Tees and the surrounding villages. Durham's cathedral setting carries World Heritage-level design scrutiny. Because cold upland winters with heavy rainfall, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
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 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.
