## Handcrafted Wooden Windows For Heritage And Contemporary Cornwall Properties

Cornwall's distinctive architecture presents its own unique demands, from granite-built fishing cottages in Mousehole and St Ives to Georgian townhouses in Truro and sprawling farmhouses across the Penwith peninsula. Based just across the Tamar in Tavistock, NMJ brings nearly two decades of expertise to Cornwall homeowners, with a deep understanding of the county's varied property types and the coastal conditions that timber windows here must be built to withstand.
