Double Glazing Brockham – uPVC windows and door in an entrance porch

Keeping Period Property Character with A uPVC Door in Surrey.

The customer in Brockham, Surrey had an old timber entrance porch which was single glazed and unfortunately, it had started to rot. It also leaked in places. Not an ideal situation.

We supplied and fitted new white uPVC, double glazed windows, a uPVC door and roof frames with black uPVC trims to imitate the original black painted timber posts.

It can put some customers off if they have a character or period property when considering using uPVC, as they feel it will spoil the look of their property.

But there are so many uPVC window and door options we can recommend, in terms of glass, window and door furniture and finishing touches – that can look as if they are the original hardwood alternatives but without the heat loss and high maintenance!

Double Glazing Dorking – uPVC French Doors

Opening up the room with French Doors, Dorking.

Our customer was having a new kitchen fitted but wanted to change the layout by having French Doors opening directly onto her patio.

A common desire to open out your kitchen into your outdoor space and make the most of your garden!

The brickwork was ground out below the existing window and the window was removed. We then installed the new uPVC French Doors, sinking the cill and threshold as low as possible into the floor to reduce the step height.

The white Swiftframe double glazed, uPVC French doors had bevelled framing and beading with internal 18mm white Georgian Bars and white handles.

We made good the external render and the customer had booked a plasterer to make good the inside next to the doors.

Double Glazing Dorking – uPVC front entrance door

 A-rated Door with Arctic Obscured Glass Upgrade, Dorking

The existing entrance door was a black/brown stained timber door. The door was single glazed and was draughty, and whilst it wasn’t rotten it had swollen and was difficult to open and close.

Our customer had had carpenters out over previous years to plane bits off but had now decided to replace it with a low maintenance product which would open in all weathers.

The property was part of a development so the new door had to match as closely as possible to the original and the other properties.

We supplied and fitted a fully sculptured Liniar black brownout/white inside framing with an A-rated door with arctic obscured glass double glazing and surface mounted Georgian Bars.

The door featured shiplap uPVC panel in the lower section and a hookbolt locking system operated by a gold coloured handle.
