Sash window repair in Houghton-le-Spring
People come to us about Splice and Scarf Repair in Houghton-le-Spring once the cheap option has already failed. Local stock is dominated by Tyneside flats, Georgian Grainger Town frontages and coastal terraces, which sets the sizes and profiles we work to. cold North Sea exposure with high sustained wind is the local complication, and wind-driven rain penetration and rapid coating loss on seaward elevations is what it eventually causes. What we concentrate on is cutting out only the decayed section and letting in new timber.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
A local consideration we always raise: Tyneside flat stock has a distinctive paired-door detail worth replicating exactly.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
