Grade II Listed Windows in Looe
Honest, locally-fitted heritage replacement windows throughout Looe (PL13), plus Talland and Hannafore.
Grade II Listed Windows from 53 miles down the A387
Our Looe heritage replacement windows work centres on fishermen's cottages on the harbour, plus the outlying pockets at Talland and Hannafore. Being only 7 miles from Liskeard means we survey quickly, and the A387 keeps access simple for coastal homeowners.
Looe homeowners tend to ring us after a winter of atlantic salt pitting on south-facing units. By then the frames have told their own story, and a heritage-sensitive replacement is usually the cheapest route back to a warm, quiet room.
Between Liskeard (7 mi north) and Fowey (8 mi west), Looe keeps us busy with coastal homeowners dealing with salt-laden air and exposed, weather-beaten frames. We bring a heritage replacement windows spec built for a coastal town, not a national template.
From the PL13 centre out to the north edge facing Liskeard, Looe rewards a slower survey. We spend the time up front so a heritage-sensitive replacement lands right first time for coastal homeowners.
Coverage from this quote radius reaches Liskeard (7 mi north), Fowey (8 mi west), Lostwithiel (10 mi west), Saltash (11 mi east), Par (11 mi west), giving us efficient runs whenever we're already on-site in Looe.
A typical run to Looe threads Liskeard → Fowey → Lostwithiel → Saltash, so if you're on one of those routes we can often combine visits and price accordingly.
Anthracite grey (RAL 7016) remains the default on newer Looe estates, with chartwell green gaining. We hold all three foils, so matching a PL13 estate pattern doesn't add a fortnight to your lead time.
Small bespoke cottage openings is usually a symptom, not the fault. In Looe it normally traces to failed edge seals plus background ventilation that was blocked years ago; we measure both before recommending a heritage-sensitive replacement.

Looe FAQs
What does grade ii listed windows involve on a Looe home?
A measured survey first, then a heritage-sensitive replacement staged around access — tighter near the centre, easier out toward Talland. Most PL13 jobs are done inside one to three days.
Can you finish in time for the Easter let?
Yes — we book Looe pre-season slots from January and prioritise short-turn work.
Do you fit non-standard cottage windows?
Yes — every unit is bespoke and we're used to medieval-era openings.
How far do you travel to reach Looe?
We're based in Cranbrook, just outside Exeter — about 53 miles from Looe via the A387. We fold it into our regional run and usually survey within 7–10 days.
Do you handle coastal town properties like those in Looe?
Yes — coastal homeowners dealing with salt-laden air and exposed, weather-beaten frames. The fishermen's cottages on the harbour and edwardian seafront villas we see most around Looe all get a tailored spec rather than an off-the-shelf one.
Is Looe a long trip for a single window?
Not at all — Looe is roughly 53 miles down the A387, and we batch nearby jobs in Liskeard and Fowey, so small jobs are still worth our while.
