What we see in Cardiff and South Wales
Architectural Joinery in Cardiff and South Wales rewards patience at the setting-out stage. You will find mostly valleys terraces, Victorian maritime villas and civic Portland stone frontages in this area, and it moves as it ages. Set against very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure, most joinery here eventually shows prolonged wetting decay and finish failure on valley-facing elevations. In practice that means one-off items worked from a drawing set rather than a catalogue.
The survey happens before manufacture, which is why our units fit without packing or trimming. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
Something particular to this area: valleys terraces share a repeating bay and sash format that suits batch manufacture.

Verified client, Cardiff and South WalesCardiff and South Wales questions
Do you cover Cardiff and South Wales?
Yes. We cover the whole of Cardiff and South Wales including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Barry and the surrounding villages. Valleys terraces share a repeating bay and sash format that suits batch manufacture. Because very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
