Trickle Vents and Ventilation across Shropshire
Most Trickle Vents and Ventilation enquiries we take in Shropshire start with an opening that is not a standard size. With medieval timber framing, Ironbridge industrial housing and border farmsteads making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. Welsh border rainfall with high sustained humidity is the local complication, and fungal decay in poorly ventilated frame cavities is what it eventually causes. Everything we do here comes back to keeping background ventilation compliant once you seal a house up.
We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
One thing that catches people out here: one of the densest concentrations of listed timber-framed buildings in England.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Shropshire?
Yes. We cover the whole of Shropshire including Shrewsbury, Telford, Oswestry, Bridgnorth and the surrounding villages. One of the densest concentrations of listed timber-framed buildings in England. Because Welsh border rainfall with high sustained humidity, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
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 take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
