Sash window repair in Rickmansworth
Half the Splice and Scarf Repair problems we fix in Rickmansworth started as a sizing assumption. Given the garden city stock, Georgian market town frontages and commuter-belt detached housing that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. The weather does the rest: moderate rainfall with cold inland frosts here, and frost damage to end grain and swelling on unbalanced-finished units as the predictable result. Where we put the effort is cutting out only the decayed section and letting in new timber.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
A detail specific to this area: garden city areas carry design codes that restrict window style changes.

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.
What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
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 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.
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.
