Exterior works for Grade II listed private residence
Project: Exterior works for Grade II listed private residence
Location: Yorkshire
We recently completed a project where we manufactured and installed new solid timber windows and doors for a valued corporate client’s private residence – a Grade II listed barn conversion in an affluent rural village in Yorkshire, where heritage is of the essence.
This appointment followed the successful completion of a fit-out at the client’s business headquarters, as well as previous remedial works on the property, we installed loft hatches in various locations to allow safe access to address damp issues, known to be common in older properties.
Our team managed the entire process end-to-end – from the initial site survey, material specification and replicating the heritage design to match existing features, through to full manufacture, delivery, and final installation. To ensure the new doors and windows replicated the building’s historic character, we used high-quality timber treated and primed to assist with the longevity.
Working in a family home, we were committed to minimising disruption and operated to a tight two-week programme. Despite persistent rainfall throughout the installation period, our team remained agile, adjusting daily to weather conditions to keep the project on track without compromising quality.
While large-scale commercial fit-outs are our bread and butter, we enjoy the challenge and creativity that come with smaller, bespoke projects like this. They allow us to showcase our craftsmanship, attention to detail, and ability to adapt to complex environments.
“After seeing the quality of JSJ UK’s work on remedial and modernisation projects at our business headquarters, I had no hesitation in asking them to take on a project at my own home.
“They manufactured and installed solid timber windows and doors throughout our Grade II–listed home. The craftsmanship feels true to the building’s heritage while giving us a high-end finish that suits the property perfectly.
“The team’s punctuality and flexibility were second to none. Despite sudden downpours almost every day, they kept the project on track and delivered exactly when they said they would.
“For quality, reliability, and genuine care in their service, I couldn’t recommend JSJ UK more highly.”
