What we see in Kent
We take a fair volume of Sash Window Repair work across Kent, and almost none of it repeats. Most of what we survey locally is weatherboarded Kentish cottages, oast conversions and coastal terraces, which is not built to any modern module. With salt-laden easterly wind along the coast in the mix, coating breakdown on exposed elevations and corrosion of ironmongery is a question of when rather than whether. In practice that means saving the original timber wherever it is still sound.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
Local factor worth flagging early: coastal exposure makes finish specification more important than timber species.

Do you cover Kent?
Yes. We cover the whole of Kent including Maidstone, Canterbury, Ashford, Dartford and the surrounding villages. Coastal exposure makes finish specification more important than timber species. Because salt-laden easterly wind along the coast, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
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.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
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.
