Exquisite RENOVATION
Exquisite RENOVATION
When Mr and Mrs Clarke from Todwick, Sheffield, decided to upgrade their home, they turned to Global Windows. In just five days, the double glazing specialists had transformed the house with new windows, three French doors, and a unique mushroom coloured composite entrance door. Managing Director Liam Hulme shares the details…
While this home already boasted many stunning features, the owners wanted an upgrade on the old wooden windows, and after consulting with the Global Windows team, it was decided that uPVC was the best replacement option, offering both energy efficiency and a brighter colour to the property overall.
Installing these windows did not take away from the overall aesthetic of the home, retaining its classic character while also increasing thermal efficiency and security.
THE RIGHT PRODUCTS
For this project, the Global Windows team installed 25 cream on white uPVC casement windows, all of which were double glazed and internally beaded with Ogee beads, offering extra security, and a lighter, brighter, and noticeably more energy efficient living space.
These windows are also fitted with high-security multi-point locking systems and auto lock handles with a key locking facility, offering complete peace of mind to the homeowner. In addition, three uPVC French doors were installed, providing wide access to the inside of the home, while seamlessly connecting with outside spaces.
Not only do Global Windows’ French doors meet stringent security standards thanks to 3-star anti-snap cylinder locks as standard, but they are also ‘A’ rated for energy efficiency thanks to a pro-active multi-chambered structure and 28mm Planithem argon gas filled sealed units, significantly reducing the homeowners’ energy bills.
The Global Windows team also installed a uPVC door to the home, constructed with some of the best security features available on the market, as well as a composite door with a cream frame and mushroom coloured slab – a timeless shade that provided a neutral yet interesting and unique aesthetic to the home.
SUCCESSFUL OUTCOME
With so many products to install into an old stone property, this was quite a challenging undertaking for the Global Windows team, but as always, they worked hard, came up with solutions to challenges, and delivered a final product that both the team and the customer were happy with.
The skilled team pushed themselves and all did their best to get this project done successfully, even scooping a prestigious GGP Installer Award for their efforts.
Judged by an independent panel of industry experts, the awards celebrate the hard work of the UK’s very best window, door and conservatory installation companies, both in residential and commercial sectors.
Mr and Mrs Clarke were delighted with the final outcome, and complimented both the workmanship as well as the friendly and efficient team.
The Global Windows team enjoyed working on this stunning property, allowing for more brightness and energy efficiency, and helping to transform its aesthetic throughout.
