Home Libraries across East Sussex
We take a fair volume of Home Libraries work across East Sussex, and almost none of it repeats. With Regency bows and bays, weatherboarded cottages and cliff-top villas making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. Add severe salt exposure combined with strong UV on south-facing frontages to that and UV breakdown of clear finishes and rapid degradation of putty lines becomes the usual trigger for replacement. Our focus on this is shelf spans calculated so loaded shelves do not sag over time.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
A detail specific to this area: Regency bow windows demand curved-glass and matched-profile joinery.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover East Sussex?
Yes. We cover the whole of East Sussex including Brighton, Hove, Eastbourne, Hastings and the surrounding villages. Regency bow windows demand curved-glass and matched-profile joinery. Because severe salt exposure combined with strong UV on south-facing frontages, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
How do you handle glazing?
Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.
Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
