Contract joinery in Sawston
Commercial Door Sets across Sawston tends to be driven by the condition of what is already there. 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. Locally you are contending with the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind, so shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock is the fault we are called out to. Everything we do here comes back to certified door sets supplied complete with frame and ironmongery prep.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
Bear in mind for this area: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

Verified client, CambridgeshireSawston questions
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
