Mrs Geall's
Aluminium Windows & Solid Roof Extension
A 1930’s home gets a much-needed 21st Century makeover.
Out went Mrs Geall’s leaking lead windows and in went our aluminium windows, making her home warmer and quieter.
An architect originally built Mrs Geall’s breath-taking home in 1930 and its appearance hasn’t altered much over the intervening 90+ years. But the windows were a huge problem. Made from lead, it was hard work cleaning them and they would leak. Mrs Geall wanted them removed but was concerned this might not be possible because of them being mullioned.
A big priority for Mrs Geall when sourcing a suitable window replacement was that she wanted maximum light to hit her home, which led to her choosing aluminium windows. With their super-slim frames, you get a huge, glazed expanse. Being manufactured from aluminium also went in their favour as it meant she wouldn’t keep having to fork out on annual maintenance costs.
Away from the windows, Mrs Geall also requested the installation of an extension at the back of the house so that she could practice her hobby of painting watercolours. A tiled roof was recommended for the extension so that it was always well-insulated.
Mrs Geall has also told us that her house isn’t as noisy as it was since the window installation. She no longer must fear opening and closing her windows too, worrying whether it would cause the windows to fall out, like she did with the leaded windows. Her energy costs are much lower as the building feels warmer. A year after the installation was done, our team returned to check that everything we still in good working order.
