Timber glazing upgrades in Fakenham
The Retrofit Double Glazing we make for Fakenham is set out from a survey, not a size chart. With flint and pantile cottages, Georgian merchant houses and coastal resort stock making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. The weather does the rest: exposed North Sea easterlies with salt-laden wind here, and salt damage and finish erosion on east-facing coastal elevations as the predictable result. The value is in reworking the rebate so a sealed unit fits without bulking the section, not in the timber bill.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
Worth knowing locally: flint walls give minimal reveal, so weathering detail carries the whole load.

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

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.
Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
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 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 work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
