Traditional Putty Glazing across Warwickshire
Traditional Putty Glazing in Warwickshire is rarely a catalogue job. The housing here is largely half-timbered Tudor frontages, Regency spa terraces and canal-side workshops, and that shapes what will actually fit. The exposure here is inland continental swings between hard frost and summer heat, which is exactly the condition that causes seasonal movement opening mortice-and-tenon joints on historic frames. What we concentrate on is genuine linseed putty lines rather than a bead pretending to be one.
We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. Tell us what you are working with and we will put a fixed figure in writing.
Bear in mind for this area: genuine timber-framed buildings need scribed repair rather than unit replacement.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Warwickshire?
Yes. We cover the whole of Warwickshire including Warwick, Nuneaton, Rugby, Leamington Spa and the surrounding villages. Genuine timber-framed buildings need scribed repair rather than unit replacement. Because inland continental swings between hard frost and summer heat, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
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.
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.
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.
