Timber doors in Ellesmere
The hard part of Garage and Side Doors in Ellesmere is not the making, it is the measuring. Most of what we survey locally is medieval timber framing, Ironbridge industrial housing and border farmsteads, which is not built to any modern module. With Welsh border rainfall with high sustained humidity in the mix, fungal decay in poorly ventilated frame cavities is a question of when rather than whether. Our focus on this is matching secondary doors so the elevation reads as one scheme.
The survey happens before manufacture, which is why our units fit without packing or trimming. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
Worth knowing locally: one of the densest concentrations of listed timber-framed buildings in England.

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.
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.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
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 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.
