Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- What materials and techniques do you use for restoring heritage doors, windows, and floors??
At Heritage Timber Specialists, we use traditional Australian hardwoods, heritage-style timber mouldings, lime-based putty, and traditional joinery techniques to restore and preserve original architectural features.
For windows and doors, we restore timber frames, sashes, glass panels, and architraves to match the building’s era. For floors, we repair and replace damaged boards, then sand and refinish using period-appropriate stains and finishes.
We’re committed to using heritage-accurate methods, but we also incorporate modern solutions discreetly, such as epoxy repairs or acoustic glazing, to improve durability and performance without compromising the look. - Can you improve energy efficiency without compromising the heritage look??
Yes — we provide draught proofing for heritage sash windows and doors, and offer non-invasive secondary glazing options to improve energy efficiency while retaining the original style.
Our draught-proofing system significantly reduces air leaks and outside noise, making your home more comfortable and energy-efficient — without altering the façade or internal character of your property. - Do you repair or replace damaged heritage features — and can you match the original design??
We always prioritise restoration over replacement to preserve as much of the original structure as possible. However, when replacement is necessary, we offer custom reproduction of doors, windows, trims, and flooring using original profiles and traditional tools.
Every replacement is handcrafted to match the existing heritage detail — including timber species, panel patterns, joinery techniques, and finishes. - What kind of warranty do you provide on restoration work??
We offer a 12-month warranty on all workmanship for restoration projects, including sash window repairs, timber door restoration, and floor refinishing.
Our materials are sourced from trusted Australian suppliers and often come with additional manufacturer warranties, depending on the product. We’re transparent about our guarantees and are happy to discuss them with you before work begins. - How do I get a quote — do you offer photo-based assessments??
