Project Story
A comprehensive window replacement focused on security and child safety for a growing family in Sawbridgeworth. The original 1980s windows provided poor security and were difficult for the homeowners to clean safely from upper floors. We installed high-security uPVC tilt and turn windows in sophisticated anthracite black, providing multiple opening options for ventilation, cleaning, and emergency egress. The tilt function allows secure ventilation even when children are present, while the turn function enables safe cleaning from inside. Enhanced security features include multi-point locking, laminated glass, and PAS 24 certification for insurance compliance.
Challenges
- Coordinating around family daily routine
- Child safety considerations throughout
- Matching existing brick and render lines
- Achieving high security ratings
Results
- Enhanced home security and insurance compliance
- Improved child safety with restricted opening
- Easier maintenance and cleaning access
- Modern aesthetic update to 1930s property
What Our Customer Says
"Perfect for our family - the tilt function means we can have fresh air safely with the children around, and cleaning the upstairs windows is so much easier now. The black frames look really smart against our red brick."— Mark & Lisa Chen
