Timber Patio Doors across County Durham
We take a fair volume of Timber Patio Doors work across County Durham, and almost none of it repeats. The housing here is largely colliery terraces, Georgian Durham city stock and Pennine stone housing, and that shapes what will actually fit. With cold upland winters with heavy rainfall in the mix, frost and saturation damage on unmaintained painted softwood is a question of when rather than whether. Our focus on this is lift-slide gear that stays smooth on a heavy timber panel.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
Bear in mind for this area: Durham's cathedral setting carries World Heritage-level design scrutiny.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover County Durham?
Yes. We cover the whole of County Durham including Durham, Darlington, Hartlepool, Stockton-on-Tees and the surrounding villages. Durham's cathedral setting carries World Heritage-level design scrutiny. Because cold upland winters with heavy rainfall, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
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.
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 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.
