Trickle Vents and Ventilation across Greater Manchester
Half the Trickle Vents and Ventilation problems we fix in Greater Manchester started as a sizing assumption. Around here it is mill-era terraces, interwar semis and large commercial and retail frontages, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. persistently high rainfall with limited drying windows sets the pace of decay, and coating failure and rot on north-facing elevations that rarely dry out is how it shows up first. The value is in keeping background ventilation compliant once you seal a house up, not in the timber bill.
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.
A local consideration we always raise: high commercial density supports substantial shopfitting and contract joinery demand.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Greater Manchester?
Yes. We cover the whole of Greater Manchester including Manchester, Bolton, Stockport, Oldham and the surrounding villages. High commercial density supports substantial shopfitting and contract joinery demand. Because persistently high rainfall with limited drying windows, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
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.
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.
