5.2 Estimates are based solely on visible and accessible conditions at the time of inspection.

8.4 Where we act solely as an introducer, responsibility for those works remains with the third-party contractor. Our liability in respect of such introduced works is limited to the reasonable care taken in selecting a suitable contractor.

9. Access, Work Areas and Escape Routes

9.1 The customer must provide safe, clear, and reasonable access to:

  • all work areas;

11. Timber, Moisture and Environmental Conditions

11.1 Timber is a natural material and may expand, contract, twist, move, or react to environmental conditions including moisture, temperature, humidity, and historic water ingress.

11.2 We cannot guarantee that existing or repaired timber components will remain free from future movement, cracking, swelling, shrinkage, or moisture-related issues, particularly where surrounding structures, masonry, decoration, glazing, ventilation, or maintenance contribute to ongoing moisture exposure.

12. Existing Glass and Glazing Risk

12.1 Due to the age and condition of existing glazing, glass breakage may occasionally occur during dismantling, servicing, restoration, repair, or sash removal.

12.2 While reasonable care will always be taken, we cannot guarantee against breakage of fragile, aged, thin, historic, loose, or previously damaged glass.

12.3 Replacement glazing, labour, and specialist glass may incur additional charges unless otherwise agreed in writing.

13. Matching Existing Materials and Finishes

13.1 We will make reasonable efforts to match existing materials, timber species, profiles, finishes, paint lines, ironmongery, glazing, and historic details where practical.

13.2 Due to age, weathering, historic alterations, discontinued materials, and natural variation, exact matches cannot be guaranteed.

14. Painting, Decorating and Finishing

14.1 Unless specifically stated in writing, painting and decorating works are excluded from our Services.

14.2 Timber repairs, restorations, glazing works, putty repairs, resin repairs, and replacement components must be properly prepared, primed, painted, sealed, and maintained by a competent decorator following completion.

14.3 We are not responsible for failure, movement, water ingress, joint opening, paint cracking, or deterioration arising from:

  • inadequate preparation;
  • insufficient curing time;
  • incorrect primers or paint systems;
  • failure to seal joints properly;

  • lack of maintenance;
  • delayed painting;
  • moisture retention;

14.4 Putty, timber, fillers, primers, sealants, and repair systems require appropriate curing and decorating within recommended timeframes.

14.5 Natural timber movement, seasonal expansion and contraction, and environmental conditions may cause minor movement in joints, fillers, or sealants and do not necessarily indicate defective workmanship.

14.6 Where decorating is carried out by others, responsibility for the ongoing weatherproofing and protection of repaired areas transfers to the customer and/or their decorator following completion of our works.

14.7 We shall not be liable for water ingress, paint failure, or timber deterioration occurring after completion where decorating, sealing, or maintenance has not been properly carried out.

19.1 Where we hold keys on behalf of a customer, we will take reasonable care of such keys.
