What We Do!

At Owlsworth Joinery we are passionate about the art of joinery and the preservation of historic craftsmanship. Our work is rooted in a deep appreciation of traditional architecture allowing us to specialise in the repair, restoration, and conservation of historic joinery.

 

From listed buildings and period homes to heritage projects and traditional interiors, we carefully restore timber elements with an unwavering commitment to authenticity, quality, and detail. Whether working on Georgian sash windows, Victorian doors, or original historic panelling, we respect the character of the building while ensuring longevity.

Our Approach

​

Each project begins with listening—understanding the building, the brief, and the client’s specific needs. We collaborate closely with homeowners, architects, and conservation professionals to ensure that every element we create, repair or restore is both appropriate to its context and built to last.

​​

We favour traditional techniques, sustainable materials, and craftsmanship that stands the test of time.

​

If you have a project—large or small—that calls for quality joinery within an historic setting, we’d be delighted to discuss how we can help.
