Do you work on listed buildings in Knaresborough?

Yes. Much of our work is on period and listed properties. In Knaresborough's old town we carry out sympathetic, minimal-intervention repair — retaining original sashes and doors, splicing decayed timber and matching original profiles in line with listed-building consent.

Can original sashes be repaired off-site and refitted?

Yes. Where it suits the project, original Knaresborough sashes can be carefully removed, brought to the Honley workshop for splicing, re-cording and draught-proofing, then reinstated — keeping the original timber and glass rather than fitting a replacement.

Knaresborough tumbles down the gorge above the River Nidd beneath its famous railway viaduct, and the old town is a warren of Georgian and Victorian houses in warm gritstone — steep streets full of panelled doors, sash windows and original staircases. Much of it is listed or within the conservation area, where keeping the original timber matters.

We carry out sash window restoration and heritage joinery for Knaresborough's period and listed properties, repairing original timber at the bench in Honley where bench joinery and turning are needed.

Local knowledge

Joinery that suits Knaresborough

Knaresborough's conservation area and listed buildings call for minimal-intervention, like-for-like repair — retaining original sashes, splicing decayed timber and replicating mouldings rather than replacing windows wholesale. The steep old-town houses carry box sashes and panelled doors well suited to this approach.

For listed properties we are glad to discuss what is appropriate before work begins, so the joinery suits both the building and any listed-building consent.
