Frequently asked questions

How does sea air affect my Cramond windows?
Salt accelerates corrosion on mild steel, mild aluminium and unprotected fixings — typical lifespan drops to 5-8 years versus 25+ inland. We specify marine-grade stainless and polyester powder-coat aluminium for every Cramond project.
Can I get double glazing in a listed Cramond cottage?
LBC is required and outcomes vary — slimline units occasionally approved on Cramond Glebe Road; almost never on Cramond Inn or the principal cottages. Secondary glazing is the reliable winter-warmth route.
What paint system do you use on coastal timber sashes?
Two-pack water-based paint system over preservative-primed Accoya or modified hardwood. 8-10 year maintenance interval coastal, versus 4-5 years for traditional oil paint on softwood.
Are there grants for coastal-spec window replacement?
Home Energy Scotland interest-free loans up to £7,500 apply for thermal-rated windows in Cramond same as anywhere else. No coastal-specific top-up exists.
