Homeowners in Cambridge and Essex have waved goodbye to high energy bills thanks to window specialist Ventrolla Cambridge and Essex.
Ashley Ford from Colchester instructed Ventrolla to restore six sash windows at the front of his semi-detached property that is situated in a conservation area and dates back to the 1880s.
Mr Ford said: “I like the idea that the windows have been in place for over 100 years and I hope that by renovating them I will be able to preserve them for another 100 years.”
He has lived in the property for ten years and decided to have the repairs carried out to limit disruption from outside noise, reduce unnecessary heat loss and lower his energy bills.
Along with fully restoring the windows, Ventrolla installed its unique Perimeter Sealing System into the gap around the sashes. The seal is designed to eradicate draughts and rattles, while ensuring that the sliding action of the windows becomes smooth.
He was so delighted with the completed work he called Ventrolla back to draught proof the front door. The renovations did not go unnoticed by local residents and two of Mr Ford’s neighbours soon placed orders with Ventrolla.
Down the road in the small hamlet of Bures on the Essex and Suffolk border, the sash window renovation specialists completed renovations on Lorna Wood’s period home.
A friend recommended Ventrolla to Mrs Woods, the owner of Grade II listed Brook House, and she has been delighted with the service she received.
Mrs Woods said: “We staggered the work over a couple of years and had a few windows done at a time. On each occasion the fitters were fantastic and incredibly efficient, causing very little disruption.
She added: “The renovated windows have made a big difference to our home, both physically and aesthetically.”
Completing the hat-trick of happy customers is Charles Norris from Cambridge. He enlisted Ventrolla as soon as he moved into his new home in a conservation area in the centre of the city in 2009.
Mr Norris said: “Our architect recommended Ventrolla. Our house is full of interesting windows – some sash and some casement. The triple window in the dining room needed to be replaced and Ventrolla did a wonderful job at keeping it consistent with the originals.
Ventrolla scheduled the work around other building work being carried out on the house.
Mr Norris added: “The windows now work much more efficiently - the Ventrolla product is really very good and has exceeded my expectations.”
Ventrolla offers a bespoke renovation service for timber sliding sash and casement windows as well as timber doors. The company has its central office in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, with additional locations throughout the UK and Ireland.
