Timber glazing upgrades in Whitstable
Slim Cavity Units is one of those jobs in Whitstable where the survey decides everything. With weatherboarded Kentish cottages, oast conversions and coastal terraces making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. salt-laden easterly wind along the coast is the local complication, and coating breakdown on exposed elevations and corrosion of ironmongery is what it eventually causes. 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. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Local factor worth flagging early: coastal exposure makes finish specification more important than timber species.

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

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.
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 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.
