Sash window repair in Shaftesbury
Splice and Scarf Repair is one of those jobs in Shaftesbury where the survey decides everything. Local property is overwhelmingly Purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort villas and thatched inland villages, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. The other factor is exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, which is why rapid finish failure and fixings corrosion within a few seasons on seafront stock is the most common reason people call us. The detail we will not compromise on is cutting out only the decayed section and letting in new timber.
We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.
Local factor worth flagging early: Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade.

Verified client, DorsetShaftesbury questions
Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
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.
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.
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.
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.
