Whether your home features traditional bay or more modern bow-style windows, we can create high performance, draught free and secure windows for you. Bay and bow windows open your room up to the outdoors, creating a feeling of space and light. We do much more than just windows and doors, in line with our focus on selecting the right product for the right application, we installed Eurocell UPVC windows both at the front and back of the house, together with a Hurst composite door. Established in Sawbridgeworth, on the Hertfordshire / Essex border, when the requirement was to stick very thin glass into windows, largely made from unsustainable timber, with putty (we can still do that).

We employ all of our fitters and glaziers - we do not use sub-contractors. This maintains a much higher standard of workmanship. We also have a very small turnover of fitters and glaziers which means that whoever fitted your windows ten or fifteen years ago will almost certainly still be available for your current project. We belong to FENSA, (Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme) which means our replacement work is checked entirely at random by the Local Authority Building Control, in order that the work is compliant with all new building regulations.

Sash windows are thermally efficient and environmentally friendly which mimic the charm of a classic timber sash window, but have all the benefits of a modern uPVC system.
