Timber glazing upgrades in Richmond
Most Thermal Survey enquiries we take in Richmond start with an opening that is not a standard size. Given the medieval York frontages, Dales stone farmhouses and Victorian coastal resorts that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. Then there is severe North Sea exposure on the coast and upland cold in the Dales, which reliably produces salt and wind damage at the coast, frost damage inland given enough seasons. Everything we do here comes back to measuring where heat is going before anyone recommends a spend.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
Local factor worth flagging early: York's historic core requires close matching of historic glazing bar profiles.

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

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.
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.
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 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.
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.
