Heritage Joinery in Halifax
Halifax is built from hard Pennine stone and built to last — from the Piece Hall and the grand civic buildings to the dense terraced streets that climb the Calderdale hillsides. Behind the stone, original timber sash windows, doors and joinery are everywhere, and proper restoration keeps them working in a demanding climate.
We carry out heritage joinery and sash window restoration across Halifax and the Calder Valley, repairing and weatherproofing original timber for period and listed properties.

Local knowledge
Joinery that suits Halifax
Halifax has a rich listed townscape and several conservation areas, with robust Victorian stone housing carrying box-sash and casement windows suited to splice repair, re-cording and discreet draught-proofing. In an exposed hillside setting, weatherproofing restored joinery is as important as the repair itself.
Larger villas and civic-era buildings often have substantial sashes and panelled doors where matching the original profile by bench joinery and turning is exactly what the work calls for.
