Timber windows in St Ives
Window Replacement in St Ives rewards patience at the setting-out stage. You are mostly dealing with college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth around here, so openings vary more than people expect. the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind is the local complication, and shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock is what it eventually causes. Our focus on this is swapping units without wrecking the reveals and the decoration.
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.
Worth knowing locally: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

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.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
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.
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.
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.
