Sash window repair in Exeter
People come to us about Sash Window Repair in Exeter once the cheap option has already failed. Local property is overwhelmingly cob and thatch, Regency seaside terraces and Dartmoor granite cottages, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. Set against the wettest large county in England with severe Atlantic exposure, most joinery here eventually shows sustained rot in cob-embedded frames and moor-exposed openings. This is really a job about saving the original timber wherever it is still sound.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
A local consideration we always raise: cob walls move seasonally, so frames need tolerance built into the fixing detail.

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.
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 match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
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 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.
