What we do and how we do it
People come to us about Garage and Side Doors in the UK once the cheap option has already failed. Because the area is mainly a mix of period and modern stock, no two openings measure quite the same. the full range of UK exposure conditions sets the pace of decay, and coating failure followed by rot at the joints is how it shows up first. Where we put the effort is matching secondary doors so the elevation reads as one scheme.
A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Worth knowing locally: specification should always be matched to local exposure.

Frequently asked questions
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
