Can you repair the loom windows on Skelmanthorpe weavers' cottages?

Yes. The long upper-floor weavers' windows and small-pane casements common in Skelmanthorpe are well suited to sympathetic repair — we splice in matching timber, renew failed sections and draught-proof the result while keeping the original window operable and in place.

Do you repair heritage furniture for Skelmanthorpe homes?

Yes. We restore heritage tables, dressers, cabinets and chairs for Skelmanthorpe clients, rebuilding loose joints, splicing matching timber and turning replacement spindles and feet by hand before refinishing so the repair blends in.

Skelmanthorpe is a textile village strung along the ridge between Denby Dale and Scissett, with long terraces of stone weavers' cottages — many still carrying their tell-tale upper-floor loom windows — alongside solid Victorian semis. The original timber joinery here, from three-light weavers' windows to panelled doors, is well worth repairing rather than replacing.

We restore sash and casement windows, repair doors and heritage furniture and turn replacement parts for Skelmanthorpe's period housing, a short run from the workshop in Honley.

Local knowledge

Joinery that suits Skelmanthorpe

The characteristic weavers' windows and small-pane casements found throughout Skelmanthorpe respond well to splicing, re-cording and sympathetic bench repair. Keeping these original features — rather than swapping them for modern units — preserves both the building's character and the look of the village's terraced streets.

With the workshop only a short drive away, sashes and furniture can be collected, repaired at the bench and reinstated with minimal disruption.
