Sash window repair in Didcot
Secondary Glazing around Didcot is a different job from one street to the next. You will find mostly Cotswold stone cottages, Georgian college-town terraces and new-build fringe estates in this area, and it moves as it ages. The exposure here is river-valley mist and prolonged autumn damp, which is exactly the condition that causes rot behind stone reveals where water tracks in at the joint. Everything we do here comes back to internal glazing that improves comfort without touching the original.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
One thing that catches people out here: listed and curtilage-listed properties are unusually common in the historic centres.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
