What defines a 1930s Semi-Detached in Stockton Heath
1930s semis were built 1930–1939. In Stockton Heath they cluster around Edwardian villa and 1930s splay-bay semi. On survey we look for:
- curved or splay bay to the front reception
- matching bay to the master bedroom above
- steel or timber Crittall casements to the hallway
- pebbledash render or half-timbered gable
Openings we usually shutter on a 1930s semi
- curved splay bay (3 or 5 sections) to the lounge
- matching curved bay upstairs
- Crittall or timber casement to hall and landing
- small kitchen casement over the sink
Full-height panels with a mid-rail at seated eye-line is our starting point — adjusted for ceiling height, sash split and existing joinery on the day.
1930s Semi-Detached specifics we've learned the hard way
Every 1930s semi we've quoted in Stockton Heath has thrown up one of these:
- splay-bay angles vary house to house — every mitre is templated
- Crittall frames are narrow, so shutter frames often face-fix to plaster reveal
- original steel handles project inward; louvre clearance must be checked
- condensation on single-glazed steel needs waterproof material near cill
That's why the survey is done in person — templated, not measured off a plan.
Our default 1930s semi-detached specification
Style: full-height panels with a mid-rail at seated eye-line.
Material: solid hardwood on splay bays; waterproof ABS on any Crittall / kitchen opening.
Louvres: 63mm louvres on the splay so panels don't foul each other at the mitre.
Typical investment: £2,100–£3,800 for the lounge bay alone. Every figure fixed and 90-day valid.
