Timber glazing upgrades in Cottenham
What makes Thermal Survey work in Cottenham is usually invisible once it is finished. Because the area is mainly college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth, no two openings measure quite the same. Then there is the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind, which reliably produces shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock given enough seasons. The detail we will not compromise on is measuring where heat is going before anyone recommends a spend.
The survey happens before manufacture, which is why our units fit without packing or trimming. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.
Bear in mind for this area: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

“The survey showed most of the loss was around the frames, not through the glass at all.”

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
