What we make

Heritage, listed & conservation joinery

Conservation-grade joinery for period and listed homes — sash windows, doors, panelling and mouldings, matched to the original fabric.

MSO Joinery/What we make/Heritage & conservation

Work near a protected interior asks for restraint, the right timber, and a joiner who reads the building before the drawing.

We make and repair joinery for period and listed properties — sash windows, panelled doors, staircases, panelling and mouldings — matched to what is already there and detailed with respect for the original fabric.

Where a moulding, a sash box or a stair profile has to be copied, we take it off the building and reproduce it exactly. New work is made to sit quietly alongside the old, in occupied and listed homes alike.

Sash & casement windows

We repair and draught-proof original sashes where we can, and make like-for-like replacements in timber or Accoya where a window is beyond saving — the profile taken off the building and reproduced exactly.

Common questions

Heritage & conservation
Do you work on listed buildings?

Yes. We work in period and listed homes, matching new joinery to the original fabric and working sensitively in occupied and protected interiors.

Can you repair rather than replace original sash windows?

Where possible we repair and draught-proof the original sashes; where a window is beyond repair we make a like-for-like replacement.

Can you copy an existing moulding or profile?

Yes — we take the original off the building and reproduce cornices, architraves, skirtings and stair profiles exactly.

Where we work
