Project Overview

A detached family home in Radlett required a complete window upgrade. The existing timber frames were rotting, single-glazed, and allowed significant heat loss and external noise penetration. The homeowners wanted a low-maintenance, energy-efficient solution that would enhance kerb appeal and improve comfort throughout the property. The goal was to install uPVC windows that would deliver modern thermal performance, security, and a clean, timeless aesthetic.

Our Solution

We supplied and installed high-performance white uPVC double-glazed windows throughout the detached house. The solution included:

  • A-rated double glazing with argon gas fill and low-E coating for superior insulation
  • Side-hung casement openings with concealed friction hinges
  • Multi-point locking systems with anti-snap cylinders and security handles
  • Trickle vents to reduce condensation and improve indoor air quality
  • Reinforced frames for added strength and durability
  • Georgian bar inserts on front-facing windows to add traditional character
  • Matching white sills, trims, and hardware for a seamless finish
  • Optional acoustic glass for bedrooms facing the road

Installation Process

  • Carried out pre-installation survey with laser measurements for each opening
  • Removed old timber windows carefully to preserve brickwork and internal plaster
  • Disposed of all waste materials responsibly
  • Inspected and prepared lintels, reveals, and sills
  • Installed new uPVC frames using galvanised fixings and expanding foam
  • Fitted double-glazed sealed units into each frame
  • Applied internal and external silicone seals for full weatherproofing
  • Adjusted all hinges, handles, and locking mechanisms for smooth operation
  • Cleaned all glass, frames, sills, and surrounding areas thoroughly
  • Conducted final walkthrough to confirm satisfaction
