Heritage Joinery in Meltham
Meltham sits just across the valley from Honley, and its stone-built cottages, chapels and Victorian housing carry the same hard-wearing timber joinery found throughout the Holme Valley. Doors, sash windows and turned staircase parts here are well within easy reach of the workshop.
We restore windows and doors, repair heritage furniture and turn replacement parts for Meltham's period properties, only a few minutes away over the hill.

Local knowledge
Joinery that suits Meltham
Meltham's older core and former mill housing feature the stone lintels, timber sashes and panelled doors typical of the area. Keeping those original where possible — splicing rather than replacing, re-cording sashes, repairing rather than swapping doors — preserves both the building's character and its value.
With the workshop barely ten minutes away, furniture and joinery can be collected, repaired at the bench and returned without fuss.
