Why Your Historic Timber Frame Needs Expert Care
Timber frame buildings, especially around Bolton, often require specialist repairs. Unlike modern properties, they rely on specific construction methods and materials, like lime mortar, that need a careful hand. Common problems include timbers affected by damp, leading to rot, or structural issues from movement over time. These aren't just aesthetic problems; they can impact your building's integrity. Trying to fix them with the wrong techniques or materials can actually cause more harm. We know how to identify these problems accurately and use the right approach to fix them, preserving the original character of your home.

Who We Are
Diagnosing Timber Frame Woes: What We Look For
Before any work begins, we carry out a detailed assessment of your timber frame. We look for signs of moisture ingress, often a culprit for timber decay, especially around windows, doors, and ground level. We check for woodworm, fungal rot, and structural weaknesses that might cause your timbers to deform or crack. This thorough inspection helps us understand the full extent of any problems. It also allows us to recommend a clear, effective repair plan that tackles the root cause, not just the symptoms, saving you time and money down the line.

Where possible, we'll carry out careful repairs to existing timbers, using methods like splicing in new sections of matching timber.

0161 524 1695Specialised Techniques for Lasting Timber Frame Restoration
Restoring a timber frame is a skilled craft. We use traditional joinery techniques, such as mortise and tenon joints, to ensure a strong and authentic repair. For timber that has suffered from rot, we might use specialist timber resins or consolidants to strengthen the damaged areas before careful repairs are carried out. We also pay close attention to breathability, often recommending lime-based plasters or renders that allow the building to 'breathe', something crucial for historic timber frames and helping prevent moisture build-up. Every piece of work we do aims to give your timbers a new lease of life.
