We are excited to announce our sucess in securing the contract on a very special project here within the North East of England. We have been appointed to carry out work on St David’s Church located in Tudhoe, County Durham, a historic building with hundreads of years heritage, replacing all eighteen windows with a gross value of £34700.00. On November 7th 1880 St David’s Church, or as it used to be known the Iron Church, was erected as a church for the people. To suit the needs of the growing congregation this sacred building has been expanded and adapted many times.
As part of the most recent restoration effort ERW have been contacted by Padgett White Architects Ltd and asked to replace the windows in St David’s. These windows date back to the inception of the church in the 1800’s. So to keep with the traditional elements of the church, we are incorporating two historic featured stained glass pieces into a sub frame, which will sit behind the window on the inside of the church. The stained glass used to create these pieces has come from two other Churches that have unfortunately been demolished. By using this glass they hope to keep the spirit of those Churches alive in St David’s.

We are absolutely delighted with the new windows which you have installed, which have perfectly retained the elegance of the original design. Installers were a pleasure to have in the house.

Our whole experience with ERW joiners has been absolutely first class. Our first meeting was a showroom appointment with Stuart Wall, I personally loved the showroom straightaway, the colours of the sample doors blew me away.
To the skilled craftsmen of joiners who made our front door, who we have not met, but who we will forever be grateful too – their craftsmanship is beyond compare – thank you so very much.
Mrs Lister
We just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that we are very happy with both our secondary glazing and the new double glazing that has very recently been fitted by ERW Joinery Ltd in our home. Despite having some reservations about the aesthetics and impact it would have on the ‘period’ of the house, we both think the windows look great. In addition to this we have already noticed that the house feels much warmer and also retains the heat for longer. I thought that the advice you gave us was excellent & the attention to detail from yourself and your workforce was so important in helping us decide about the best products. Could you also please pass on our thanks to the workforce who were professional, hardworking and above all craftsmen. We will certainly be happy to recommend your company to any of our friends who may be considering similar work.
