This grade 2 listed dwelling is in a prominent position in the High Street of Old Eston Village. The challenge was to provide both thermal and acoustic insulation whilst maintaining the historic features and character of this important building.
The dwelling is very close to the High Street and opposite a public house. Noise was a big problem for the residents and the existing single glazed windows offered little insulation from the traffic and pedestrian noise. The property suffered from terrific heat loss from the draughty single glazed frames.
In consultation with the local planning department, ERW designed a Yorkshire sliding window double glazed with 8.8 mm stadip acoustic glass to the outer pane, with a 4 mm warm edge spacer bar, argon filled cavity and 4 mm low E coated inner pane of glass.
The wood windows were factory decorated in Heritage cream finish to replicate the historic colours of the existing frames.
Making a listed building more energy efficient can be challenging.

Whilst not the cheapest quote, the presentation and professional approach persuaded me to use ERW. Standard of work and communication to let us know when the works will be conducted were excellent. Stain glass windows are perfect match and look excellent.

The work of installing our double glazed units has finished and my wife and I want to tell you what a pleasure it was to have the installers working on that job. They had humour, application, care, consideration and skill and we much enjoyed their time with us. We have thanked them but felt it was important for you to know how grateful we are.
Mr & Mrs W, Eaglescliffe
Having just recently had wooden windows installed by your company, I would like to thank you for the professional and efficient service you provided. From my initial phone call to ERW through quotation and survey it all went very smoothly. I congratulate you on your work force who were all polite, punctual, reliable, tidy, helpful, considerate and very hard working. A CREDIT TO ERW! Needless to say I am delighted with my new windows and would not hesitate to recommend ERW to anyone who wants to deal with a professional family run firm.
Mrs B, Wolviston, Billingham
