Sash window repair in Wimborne Minster
If you are looking at Rattle and Rot Surveys in Wimborne Minster, the timber is only half the decision. Given the Purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort villas and thatched inland villages that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. 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. Our focus on this is an honest report, including when replacement is genuinely the better call.
The site visit comes first, because assumptions made in an office get paid for on site. Send us sizes and a photograph and we will come back with a fixed written price.
Worth knowing locally: Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade.

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 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.
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.
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.
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.
