Heritage Joinery in Ripon
Ripon is England's third-smallest city, a cathedral town with a fine Georgian market square at its heart and handsome sandstone and brick frontages around Kirkgate and out toward Studley and Fountains. These period houses carry box-sash windows, fanlights and panelled doors that are exactly the architectural timber the workshop exists to restore.
We carry out heritage joinery and sash window restoration for Ripon's period and listed properties, repairing and replicating original timber to match the building's period and proportions.

Local knowledge
Joinery that suits Ripon
Ripon's conservation area and listed townscape call for sympathetic, like-for-like timber repair — retaining original sashes, splicing decayed cills and matching mouldings rather than replacing windows. The Georgian frontages around the market square carry tall multi-pane sashes well suited to this work.
For larger or distant commissions we are happy to discuss access, removal and reinstatement so original sashes can be repaired at the Honley workshop and refitted with minimal disruption.
