Timber glazing upgrades in Chard

Secondary Glazing is one of those jobs in Chard where the survey decides everything. You will find mostly Bath stone Georgian terraces, Levels farmhouses and Victorian seaside stock in this area, and it moves as it ages. Locally you are contending with very high rainfall with standing water across the Levels, so prolonged saturation causing frame distortion and sash binding is the fault we are called out to. In practice that means internal glazing that leaves the original window entirely untouched.

The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.

Worth knowing locally: Bath's World Heritage status makes joinery detail subject to close scrutiny.

Chard questions

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 if the opening is out of square?

Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.

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 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.

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.
