Splice and Scarf Repair across Shropshire
The hard part of Splice and Scarf Repair in Shropshire is not the making, it is the measuring. You will find mostly medieval timber framing, Ironbridge industrial housing and border farmsteads in this area, and it moves as it ages. The other factor is Welsh border rainfall with high sustained humidity, which is why fungal decay in poorly ventilated frame cavities is the most common reason people call us. The part that matters is cutting out only the decayed section and letting in new timber.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
Bear in mind for this area: one of the densest concentrations of listed timber-framed buildings in England.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Shropshire?
Yes. We cover the whole of Shropshire including Shrewsbury, Telford, Oswestry, Bridgnorth and the surrounding villages. One of the densest concentrations of listed timber-framed buildings in England. Because Welsh border rainfall with high sustained humidity, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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 take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
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.
