In the midst of Summer, its easy to forget that the Autumn and Winter nights are just around the corner. With the chilly breeze, crunchy leaves and roaring fires, the last two seasons of the year are hugely popular with many people, although if energy efficiency in your home is something of a concern, it could be a worry for you and your family.
More often than not, heat loss and draughts are caused by poorly fitted windows and doors, as well as older windows and doors which have simply been uncared for and lost some of their efficiency as the years go by. Although there are some tricks to help with the loss of heat temporarily, including draught excluders, in the long term you’ll need to take extra steps to ensure that your home is efficient and free of chilly draughts.
When looking at the options available to you with your timber windows and doors, the information available can be overwhelming. Do I need to replace or simply repair the windows? What type of glass or glazing should I consider? Is there another more energy efficient option available to me?
The most important part of exploring the options is to seek expert advice, and try not to get caught up in any technical terms that may be thrown at you.

I was delighted with the installation process. Steve and Tony worked very hard and took a lot of care around our house. My husband thought we would end up having to redecorate but was amazed that the windows looked like they had always been there. We are delighted and have had a number of positive comments about them. Thank you.
