What we see in Cumbria
Half the Retrofit Double Glazing problems we fix in Cumbria started as a sizing assumption. The housing here is largely Lakeland slate cottages, Georgian Carlisle stock and coastal industrial terraces, and that shapes what will actually fit. The weather does the rest: the highest rainfall in England with severe upland exposure here, and sustained saturation decay and finish failure within short recoating cycles as the predictable result. What we concentrate on is reworking the rebate so a sealed unit fits without bulking the section.
Manufacture only starts once the survey figures are agreed with you in writing. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
A detail specific to this area: Lake District National Park controls window style closely across the central valleys.

“The survey showed most of the loss was around the frames, not through the glass at all.”
Verified client, Cumbria“Half the cost of replacement and the rooms hold heat noticeably better.”
Verified client, Cumbria“They fitted trickle vents we had not thought about, which stopped the condensation.”

Do you cover Cumbria?
Yes. We cover the whole of Cumbria including Carlisle, Barrow-in-Furness, Kendal, Whitehaven and the surrounding villages. Lake District National Park controls window style closely across the central valleys. Because the highest rainfall in England with severe upland exposure, 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
