Energy efficient replacement windows Leicester - what’s it about?

July 20th, 2010

Double Glazed, Triple Glazed and Energy Ratings for your Windows Leicester home. 

Your property will lose heat through it’s windows and installing energy efficient replacement windows is a sound way to reduce your heating costs and keep your Leicester home warmer.

Double glazing uses two sheets of glass with a gap between them which creates an insulating barrier.  Triple glazed windows have three sheets of glass. Both options can deliver a high level of energy efficiency but in the UK we have found that it is not cost effective to supply triple glazing as we do not have the weather conditions to require it.

With our sculptured frames and pilkington glass double glazed unit,  we supply all you’ll need for tip top performance with an “A” rating for windows in Leicester.

We only supply high rated energy efficient windows for windows Leicester.  This is similar to the one you may have seen your household appliances. A-rated windows are the most efficient and our replacement windows come with a ratings sticker to show its effectiveness.

Pvcu Leicester Windows supplier guideline for East Midlands

June 14th, 2010

I’ve just had a customer mention that he’d received a quotation that was £1500 cheaper than our for his entire house windows and that he had decided not to use us.  This is disappointing,  especially as I know the competition in our area does not provide the quality or service that we do - in fact it’s more likely that this customer will be looking to replace his Leicester windows again within 10 years - not good!

To ensure you gain a quality service - compare our benchmarks against other Leicester window companies.

  • Pilkington K glass - A quality material made into 28mm double glazed sealed units with high thermal insulation and noise reduction.

Leicester Conservatory - Case Study of usage

April 24th, 2010

Mr and Mrs Hatch live in a stone built detached house.

They decided to add a conservatory to their home so that they had more space to entertain guests and relax throughout the whole year.

The leicester conservatory they chose was the Victorian with an Ultraframe polycarbonate roof.  It has a set of double doors which link it to their kitchen to provide a generous and comfortable space where people can chat and relax as dinner is prepared.

The interior of the leicester conservatory is furnished in a relaxing and elegant neutral colour scheme with wooden flooring, a two seater sofa and a small dining table.

“The addition of the conservatory allows us to spend the whole of the year in the garden - we dont know what we’d do without it”

April 5th, 2010

A quick note for those considering a large leicester conservatory.  We’ve found that the P shape can look particularily impressive on 3-4 bedroom detached houses.

The P shape leicester conservatory that we construct provides the wow factor as the lean to section can also feature a “gable” infill frame or can be hipped back.

The P shape is ideal for creating maximum space whilst maintaining a sense of proportion applicable to the existing home.
