It’s often at this time of year that businesses take stock of the previous 12 months and plan ahead for the next 12. Firstly we would like to wish you season’s greetings and a happy holiday, and also to let you know that we will be here for you in the New Year if you have any specialist timber window and door requirements in your upcoming projects. Here’s a reminder of some of the projects we’ve helped architects, main contractors and specifiers within the North East’s public and private sectors over the last 12 months:
Redworth Hall Hotel – ERW were part of the team contracted to convert this Jacobean-style manor house into a premium quality hotel. We supplied and installed specialist windows and doors designed to ensure hotel safety standards were met but in-keeping with the unique character of the building including; 124 high performance stormproof casement timber windows, 2 shaped pivot windows, 2 fire exit French doors and 2 single door combination frames.
Retirement Housing for Richmond District Council – Working alongside Kier Services to renovate buildings for retirement, sheltered and supported housing for older people, ERW’s input into this large project covered: a mixture of vertical sliding sash and flush casement high performance timber windows with 39 secondary glazed units and the full renovation of 42 historic timber windows.
New Primary School in Hartlepool – Working with Surgo Construction for Cleveland Council, we were contracted to blend modern designs with traditional materials through the design, manufacture and installation of high performance, sustainable wood casement windows and door frames.
University of Sunderland – Working with Clugston Construction on the university’s ‘Centre to Enterprise and Innovation’, this is an exciting project for us. Manufacturing and installing 7 bespoke casements that incorporate specialist Heritage Double Glazed units and adding in 32 combination secondary glazing units, including 12 to Arched Windows. We will also be carrying out some off-site renovation to 5 re-claimed original windows to fit into new apertures.

As the days shorten and the outdoor temperature drops, our windows transform into […]
Upgrading your windows is one of the most effective investments that you can make in your property, particularly during the colder months. Outdated or poorly performing windows are often the common cause for heat loss in a home, making rooms feel draughty and inconsistent in temperature, whilst also raising your energy bills. Often, you won’t […]
There’s a common belief among heritage homeowners that you can’t improve your heritage home – let us introduce you to vacuum glazing. Whether it’s the tight constraints of planning permission, or a reluctance to hinder the visual appearance of listed buildings, heritage homeowners are often reluctant to attempt to renovate their home in any regard, […]

Just a quick note to say how fantastic the men were that came to install the windows, they were very polite and friendly and have done a great job. The windows look brilliant and I am very pleased with them.

As in all things, there is no substitute for quality. Excellent product connected to a work ethos of ‘only being as good as your last job’ ensures continued quality of service, hopefully, to an ever expanding customer base.
My door is a visual ‘daily delight’. So pleased that I found my way to your factory door.
Mr Taylor, Billingham
I love our new doors. They are absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I’d imagined. Every step of the process has been easy, well managed and clearly communicated, which I have come to appreciate is not always the case.
The installation crew that has been here for the past two days has been friendly and highly professional. They did a great job.
Thank you so much for taking the time to walk us through your showroom and workshop back in December. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome.
