Timber glazing upgrades in Leicester
Retrofit Double Glazing around Leicester is a different job from one street to the next. Local property is overwhelmingly hosiery-era terraces, ironstone villages and large modern estates, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. Because of dry inland climate with sharp seasonal swings, we see movement cracking and bead shrinkage from repeated wet-dry cycling more often here than in most of the country. This is really a job about reworking the rebate so a sealed unit fits without bulking the section.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Local factor worth flagging early: ironstone villages have distinctive mullion proportions worth matching.

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.
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.
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.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
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.
