Timber glazing upgrades in Harpenden
If you are looking at Slim Cavity Units in Harpenden, the timber is only half the decision. Because the area is mainly garden city stock, Georgian market town frontages and commuter-belt detached housing, no two openings measure quite the same. Locally you are contending with moderate rainfall with cold inland frosts, so frost damage to end grain and swelling on unbalanced-finished units is the fault we are called out to. Everything we do here comes back to narrow cavities that perform while keeping the sightline historic.
A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
Bear in mind for this area: garden city areas carry design codes that restrict window style changes.

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

Verified client, Hertfordshire“They fitted trickle vents we had not thought about, which stopped the condensation.”

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.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added 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.
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 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.
