Joinery — 1st & 2nd fix in Formby & Crosby

Joinery and carpentry in Formby & Crosby — first and second fix, doors, windows, frames and finishes, coordinated with the structural and plaster work.

Formby, Crosby and Ainsdale are mostly 1930s and post-war detached houses, semis and bungalows, and the classic job is a wide rear opening onto a new extension or garden room, often with a goalpost frame for big sliding doors.

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

Formby and Crosby fall under Sefton Council building control, or a registered building control approver.
