Timber doors in Great Shelford
We take a fair volume of Timber Front Doors work across Great Shelford, and almost none of it repeats. The building stock is college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. What accelerates it is the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind, and shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock follows sooner than owners expect. Our focus on this is sets where the door and frame are made together so they stay aligned.
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.
Worth knowing locally: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

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.
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.
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.
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.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
