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.

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
We just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that we are very happy with both our secondary glazing and the new double glazing that has very recently been fitted by ERW Joinery Ltd in our home. Despite having some reservations about the aesthetics and impact it would have on the ‘period’ of the house, we both think the windows look great. In addition to this we have already noticed that the house feels much warmer and also retains the heat for longer. I thought that the advice you gave us was excellent & the attention to detail from yourself and your workforce was so important in helping us decide about the best products. Could you also please pass on our thanks to the workforce who were professional, hardworking and above all craftsmen. We will certainly be happy to recommend your company to any of our friends who may be considering similar work.
Ms R, 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 just wanted to say a big thank you for a job really well done. All your staff are helpful and the team carried out the installation were tidy and caused minimal disruption. Thank you!
Mr & Mrs N, Eppleby
