Service 05
Old buildings need specialist care. From wind-damaged rafters to rot-ravaged window frames, Blackburn Carpentry provides expert timber repair services across the South West — preserving the fabric of your home while making it watertight and structurally sound.
Many of our repair projects involve listed buildings and period properties in the Wiltshire, Hampshire and Dorset countryside. We understand the sensitivities of working in these environments — matching original timber species, using traditional fixing methods and working in line with conservation area requirements where needed.
How do I know if my timber structure needs repair?
Common signs include visible rot or darkening, soft or spongy timber when pressed, cracks running along the grain, or a musty smell from roof spaces. Call us for a free assessment.
Can timber repairs be done without disrupting the rest of the building?
In most cases, yes. We carefully sequence our work to minimise disruption and make good all disturbed surfaces and decorations as we go.
