Contract joinery in St Ives
Site Measured Surveys in St Ives rewards patience at the setting-out stage. Local property is overwhelmingly college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. The weather does the rest: the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind here, and shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock as the predictable result. The detail we will not compromise on is recording the building as built rather than as drawn.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
A local consideration we always raise: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

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.
