Naomi’s renovation using Bereco Timber Windows & Doors

Naomi and her family purchased their Cambridgeshire home in January 2017, but it wasn’t until 2019, after meeting with Back to Front Exterior Design, that their renovation journey began. 

Originally constructed in 1957, the two-storey home underwent a thorough modernisation over a 10 month period. The renovation, completed in four phases using Bereco timber windows and doors, included the addition

of a third floor, a rear single storey extension, and a stunning bay window in the Lounge, all thoughtfully designed to create
a more spacious and family- oriented living environment. 

Naomi opted for Bereco Sliding Sash Spiral Balance and Flush Casements from our Traditional Range, featuring a decorative Ovolo detail internally and a putty-style design externally. Beautifully finished in RAL 7038 – Agate Grey, these windows provided a striking contrast against the white rendered walls. The addition of fully concealed balances in the Sliding Sash windows seamlessly combined traditional aesthetics with modern functionality.

For a classic touch, Polished Nickel ironmongery was selected across all timber windows and doors. This included Barrington Bulb End Handles for the doors, with matching Bulb End Handles for the Flush Casement windows, and Fitch Fasteners, Hook Lifts and Push & Twist Vent Locks on the Sliding Sash windows.

Bereco’s bespoke approach allows our customers to customise many details of their timber windows and doors, from glass patterns to ironmongery finishes and bar thicknesses. For the bathroom window, Naomi chose a distinctive combination of clear glass on the top sash and obscure glass in a Frosted pattern to the bottom sash, providing level 5 privacy glazing. 

The rear single storey extension, designed by Back to Front Exterior Design, includes symmetrical sliding sash windows with vertical glazing bars and a pair of French Doors flanked by Sliding Sash windows coupled directly to each side. The aligned glazing creates cohesive sight lines, with the French Doors also showcasing a raised & fielded panel below. Another standout feature is the Lounge bay window, featuring a triple Sliding Sash window with two large Sliding Sash returns on each side.

Naomi said:

“Bereco were meticulous in every detail and their follow up service has been excellent!” 

Expertly designed by Back to Front Exterior Design and managed by Naomi (Naomi Rayner Project Management), the project transformed a red brick house into a stunning white rendered three storey home! Naomi expressed
her love for the Agate Grey finish and the traditional aesthetic of her windows and doors, highlighting the remarkable transformation.
