Joinery — 1st & 2nd fix in Barrow-in-Furness

Joinery and carpentry in Barrow-in-Furness — first and second fix, doors, windows, frames and finishes, coordinated with the structural and plaster work.

Barrow's red-brick terraces, built for the shipyards, and the houses on Walney and in Dalton-in-Furness bring the classic terrace jobs: two downstairs rooms opened into one, chimney breasts out and kitchens extended into the yard.

Joinery is the detail that makes a building work — door frames, lintels, floor joists and fixings going in first, then doors, windows, skirting and finishes following later. We carry out both first and second fix on structural projects and new builds.

What’s included

  • First fix — door frames, window frames and linings
  • Floor and roof timbers trimmed and fixed
  • Lintels and timber beams to specification
  • Second fix — hanging doors, installing windows and frames
  • Skirting, architrave and trim
  • Built-in joinery and fitted furniture
  • Bespoke doors and frames
  • Finishing — sanding and staining or painting

Barrow-in-Furness falls under Westmorland and Furness Council building control, or a registered building control approver.
