Bespoke joinery, made for Ely homes

Schnauber supplies and installs timber sash windows, casements and doors in Ely. A useful first enquiry distinguishes an existing window that needs a closer match from a new opening that needs a fresh specification. Include the street address and photographs so the survey can establish which details need to be retained.

For a sash replacement, record the number and position of glazing bars rather than requesting a generic period style. Photograph the sill from outside and the lower corners from inside. Tell us whether the difficulty is opening the sash, a draught at the meeting rail or deterioration in the timber: those observations call for different survey checks.

Choose from our timber sash windows, casement windows and Heritage Slimlite range. The survey records the details for your property before the final specification is agreed.

Before your survey

Planning your Ely window project

East Cambridgeshire lists an Article 4 Direction for Ely alongside its conservation guidance. Check whether it covers your property and proposed work; being in Ely alone does not answer that question.

East Cambridgeshire conservation guidance is the local reference for this check. For a listed building or an address with additional controls, confirm the proposed work with the relevant authority before placing an order.

Use the quote form below to tell us the address, the openings involved and any drawings or decisions you already hold. Please describe access and any original details you want retained. We can discuss the product options at survey stage; the quotation depends on the measured size, joinery, glazing, finish and fitting scope.

For another address, see our Haddenham service page or the full area list.

07Common Questions

Timber windows Ely — FAQs

Does every Ely window come under the Article 4 Direction? +

Check the council map and the actual direction against your address and the elevation concerned. Send any existing decision or drawing with your enquiry so the window schedule can be compared with it.

What helps identify a problem with an Ely sash window? +

Say which sash sticks and whether it happens when opening, closing or locking. A photograph of the meeting rails and a short description of where you feel the draught are more useful than a size alone.

How do I request a timber window quote in Ely? +

Use the existing quote form on this page or call 0800 061 4118. Include your postcode, the number of openings and the type of work. Schnauber offers a free survey and quotation; the price depends on the agreed specification.

Does a heritage window automatically meet planning requirements? +

No. The suitability of a window depends on the building, its details and any address-specific controls. Check the proposed design with the relevant authority before ordering where approval is needed.
