Timber glazing upgrades in Loughton
We take a fair volume of Slim Cavity Units work across Loughton, and almost none of it repeats. Around here it is estuary bungalows, 1930s ribbon development and timber-framed village stock, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. Locally you are contending with the driest climate in the UK with sharp summer heat, so shrinkage cracking and glazing bead failure from repeated drying cycles is the fault we are called out to. The part that matters is narrow cavities that perform while keeping the sightline historic.
The survey happens before manufacture, which is why our units fit without packing or trimming. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.
A detail specific to this area: low rainfall shifts the risk from rot toward movement and seal failure.

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.
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.
