Contract joinery in Margate
The hard part of Contract Joinery Packages in Margate is not the making, it is the measuring. Property here runs to weatherboarded Kentish cottages, oast conversions and coastal terraces, and each of those brings its own set of dimensions. Then there is salt-laden easterly wind along the coast, which reliably produces coating breakdown on exposed elevations and corrosion of ironmongery given enough seasons. The detail we will not compromise on is packages priced against a bill and delivered to the date on the programme.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.
One thing that catches people out here: coastal exposure makes finish specification more important than timber species.

Verified client, KentMargate questions
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
