We recently completed a casement window installation in Bearwood, and the transformation has been incredible. The property had traditional leaded timber windows which, although charming, were tired, draughty, and no longer performing well. By upgrading to modern uPVC casement windows, the home now feels warmer, brighter, and far more secure.
Before – Old Timber Windows Showing Their Age
Before the work began, the house featured classic timber bay windows with leaded glass. While these suited the style of the home, they had started to deteriorate. The timber frames were peeling and weathered, and the single glazing was letting out heat and letting in the cold.
This is a common issue we see with older properties, beautiful designs that simply don’t meet today’s standards for insulation, energy efficiency, and security.
During – Careful Removal and Precise Fitting
Our team removed the old frames and glazing with care, making sure to protect the property throughout. Installing new uPVC casement windows isn’t just about swapping old for new, it’s about making sure everything is sealed, aligned, and finished properly so the homeowner enjoys the benefits for years to come.
During this stage, you can really see the difference as the fresh white frames start to take shape and transform the look of the house.
After – A Brighter, Warmer, Modern Home
The finished result speaks for itself. The new white casement windows completely freshen up both the inside and outside of the property. From the street, the house looks sharper and more modern, while inside the rooms feel lighter and more open.
The homeowners now benefit from:
-
Better insulation – keeping the warmth in and cutting down on energy bills.
-
Improved security – thanks to strong uPVC frames and multi-point locking.
-
Low maintenance – no more sanding or painting like with timber.
-
A cleaner, modern look – while still keeping the charm of the bay windows.
It’s a real upgrade that makes the home more comfortable and more attractive.
Why Casement Windows Are a Great Choice
Casement windows are one of the most popular options in the UK, and for good reason. They’re versatile, easy to open, and available in plenty of configurations, whether for bay, bow, or standard flat windows. With modern double glazing or even triple glazing, they’re also excellent for energy efficiency.
For this Bearwood project, they were the perfect fit: practical, stylish, and long-lasting.
