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 have been well satisfied with the work done by ERW. From our first meeting when we turned up at the showroom without prior booking to the final fitting we have been well looked after. The two installers were punctual, tidy and did an excellent job and responded positively to questions and took pride in their work.
Mr & Mrs T, Darlington
I remember visiting your showroom and saying that I wish my windows could be as good as the ones on your display and they are! I am absolutely delighted with them. They have transformed the front of my house. All installation staff involved were extremely polite and professional in their approach. They treated my home with respect and ensured that they cleaned thoroughly after. Please pass on my thanks to them for the quality of work they have done. It has been much admired by so many people, so I will not hesitate to recommend your firm in the future.
Mrs R, Stokesley
I don’t think I can think of any improvement you could male, we are very satisfied particularly that the actual installation was so quickly and expertly carrier out leaving us with no tidying up to do.
Mr D, Stockton on Tees
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.
