Timber glazing upgrades in Dumbarton
The Slim Cavity Units we make for Dumbarton is set out from a survey, not a size chart. Local property is overwhelmingly sandstone tenements, Georgian New Town terraces and post-war housing schemes, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. Set against cold wet winters with strong westerly exposure, most joinery here eventually shows sash and case failure in tenement stock and cill decay at stone junctions. The value is in narrow cavities that perform while keeping the sightline historic, not in the timber bill.
The survey happens before manufacture, which is why our units fit without packing or trimming. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
Local factor worth flagging early: Scottish sash and case construction differs from English box sash and needs matching.

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.
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.
