Traditional Putty Glazing across Cheshire
Nothing about Traditional Putty Glazing in Cheshire is settled until someone has been on site. You will find mostly black-and-white revival frontages, Georgian market towns and large modern detached stock in this area, and it moves as it ages. The weather does the rest: moderate rainfall with damp Mersey basin air here, and joint opening and glazing failure on large-format modern units as the predictable result. The part that matters is genuine linseed putty lines rather than a bead pretending to be one.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
A detail specific to this area: high-value Cheshire stock frequently specifies engineered hardwood as standard.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Cheshire?
Yes. We cover the whole of Cheshire including Chester, Warrington, Crewe, Macclesfield and the surrounding villages. High-value Cheshire stock frequently specifies engineered hardwood as standard. Because moderate rainfall with damp Mersey basin air, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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 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 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 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.
