What we see in Tyne and Wear
We take a fair volume of Sash Window Repair work across Tyne and Wear, and almost none of it repeats. The building stock is Tyneside flats, Georgian Grainger Town frontages and coastal terraces, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. With cold North Sea exposure with high sustained wind in the mix, wind-driven rain penetration and rapid coating loss on seaward elevations is a question of when rather than whether. This is really a job about saving the original timber wherever it is still sound.
Manufacture only starts once the survey figures are agreed with you in writing. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.
Worth knowing locally: Tyneside flat stock has a distinctive paired-door detail worth replicating exactly.

Do you cover Tyne and Wear?
Yes. We cover the whole of Tyne and Wear including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, Gateshead, South Shields and the surrounding villages. Tyneside flat stock has a distinctive paired-door detail worth replicating exactly. Because cold North Sea exposure with high sustained wind, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
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.
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.
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.
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.
