What we see in Dorset

The hard part of Sash Windows in Dorset is not the making, it is the measuring. The building stock is Purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort villas and thatched inland villages, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. Because of exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, we see rapid finish failure and fixings corrosion within a few seasons on seafront stock more often here than in most of the country. The part that matters is sliding sashes that run smoothly and hold position without slamming.

Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.

One thing that catches people out here: Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade.

Dorset 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.

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.

Can you match an existing profile?

Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.

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.

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.

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.
