Rattle and Rot Surveys across Leicestershire
Rattle and Rot Surveys in Leicestershire is rarely a catalogue job. Around here it is hosiery-era terraces, ironstone villages and large modern estates, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. Add dry inland climate with sharp seasonal swings to that and movement cracking and bead shrinkage from repeated wet-dry cycling becomes the usual trigger for replacement. Where we put the effort is an honest report, including when replacement is genuinely the better call.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
Local factor worth flagging early: ironstone villages have distinctive mullion proportions worth matching.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Leicestershire?
Yes. We cover the whole of Leicestershire including Leicester, Loughborough, Hinckley, Melton Mowbray and the surrounding villages. Ironstone villages have distinctive mullion proportions worth matching. Because dry inland climate with sharp seasonal swings, 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.
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.
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 price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
