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.
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, […]
If you’ve ever renovated, or are looking to renovate your home, you’ve likely asked yourself “What is U Value?”. U Value is a term that is becoming harder and harder to avoid in the modern day, likely because it’s closely related to topics you’re more familiar with, such as: energy efficiency, sustainability, and Net Zero.

ERW has been a major contributor in improving the physical appearance and energy conservation in our property which sits in the middle of Stokesley’s conservation area. In four phases of design and installation since early 2018 you have helped transform our property with complete distinction.
From assistance given to lodging planning applications with Hambleton District Council through advice on window design and final installation, I can give no higher praise than commending ERW on every aspect of installation.
I first visited your showroom and workshop in the Autumn of 2017 and was impressed with the factory tour afforded me by Kirsty Semark (Customer Service Supervisor). I was convinced that ERW could provide the solution to upgrading our ageing timber windows and appreciate the help and courtesy extended from you and all your staff – many of whom I have met during our four phases of installation.
The very recent installation of a new ‘Eton’ front door enhances the front elevation with perfection.
Please convey our sincere thanks to everyone involved with the workmanship, installation and administration.
Mr U, Stokesley
I just wanted to send you our thanks for yet another superb installation yesterday by Dan and crew……(our ‘phase 3’). The face-lift to our property this year has been a true transformation and your installers are always so courteous and helpful. Five star service

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.
