Sash window repair in Sawston
Splice and Scarf Repair across Sawston tends to be driven by the condition of what is already there. You will find mostly college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth in this area, and it moves as it ages. What accelerates it is the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind, and shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock follows sooner than owners expect. The value is in cutting out only the decayed section and letting in new timber, not in the timber bill.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
One local point to factor in: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
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.
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.
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 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.
