As 2022 comes to end, we thought we would reflect on everything that happened this year at ERW. It has been a very busy year and we want to share it with you! As many of you can agree, it has been an eventful year from a change in Monarch to the world cup. We can’t wait to help even more people transform their homes this year, but first, we’ll take a look at events which happened in 2022.
Our previous managing director, Lawrence Wall, handed the reins over to Phillip Wall. Phillip has worked in the company for many years and has extensive experience within the joinery industry. He runs the company alongside directors Helen Wood, Stuart Wall and Philip Tye. The values and ethos of ERW will always remain the same: to provide industry-leading timber products with a level of dedicated service you expect from a local company.
Our Technical Manager, Jamie Dixon won a national award on 25th November for Rising Star from the British Woodworking Federation in London. Jamie began his career at ERW in 2015 and has worked his way up showcasing his innovative ideas and attention to detail. Some of his previous projects include Manchester’s London Road Fire Station and Darlington’s yards. We’re incredibly proud that Jamie has been acknowledged for his exceptional talent.

We love looking back and seeing what the trends have been for the year. This year’s popular door colours were pinks and blues with some exceptional lead detailing. The favourite door that has been most popular for installations this year has been the Hampton with its kerb appeal and period bolection moulding.

2022 has gone by so quickly and we can’t wait for what next year will bring. We wish everyone a very happy 2023!

You’re warmly invited to join us at our March 2026 Open Weekend to discover exactly what sets our bespoke timber craftsmanship apart. From Friday 20th to Sunday 22nd March, we are opening the doors of our award-winning Middlesbrough showroom and workshop.

Timber windows naturally provide a beautiful, timeless aesthetic, instantly bringing warmth and character to any home. They offer the ideal foundation for creating a stunning festive display that can give your home that sought after cozy Christmas feel this time of year. 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 Outdated or poorly performing windows are often the common cause for heat loss in a home, making rooms feel draughty and inconsistent in temperature, whilst also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 […]
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.

The work of installing our double glazed units has finished and my wife and I want to tell you what a pleasure it was to have the installers working on that job. They had humour, application, care, consideration and skill and we much enjoyed their time with us. We have thanked them but felt it was important for you to know how grateful we are.
Mr & Mrs W, Eaglescliffe
My wife and I are delighted with the work you carried out on the windows. You completed the work most efficiently, to our agreed time scale. Your dealings with us from initial enquiry to completion, were first class. I would most certainly have no hesitation in recommending your firm to others, and will be in touch in late spring to initiate further work – on our upstairs front windows.
Mr C, Middlesbrough
A superb job! We’re really delighted with all our new windows. We’d like to thank ERW very much.
The installation team of Craig, Aarron and Joe were very professional, worked well together and got on with the job efficiently to complete everything ahead of time. They were very polite and communicated well with us about the job in hand and the time scale, and we were impressed that they cleared up so well each day before leaving. We would like to thank them for all their workmanship, advice, help and good humour.
The quality of the items made off-site was very high. The 7 windows look really good, they operate well and the finish is excellent. Hopefully, next winter’s gas and electricity bills will show the benefit.
From our initial contact with Stuart and our visit to the showroom, through the technical survey by Andy and the co-ordination by Sophie and Jeff, to the final installation, we’re more than happy with the whole process. We’re so pleased that we chose ERW for our continuing efforts at improving our 115-year-old home. We will certainly come back for the final stage of work on our windows in due course.
Mr and Mrs C, Darlington
