Timber doors in Tavistock

There is no standard version of Garage and Side Doors in Tavistock, which is rather the point. The building stock is cob and thatch, Regency seaside terraces and Dartmoor granite cottages, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. Set against the wettest large county in England with severe Atlantic exposure, most joinery here eventually shows sustained rot in cob-embedded frames and moor-exposed openings. What we concentrate on is matching secondary doors so the elevation reads as one scheme.

We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.

One local point to factor in: cob walls move seasonally, so frames need tolerance built into the fixing detail.

Tavistock questions

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.

Do you work in hardwood or softwood?

Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.

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.

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.

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.
