Mr & Mrs Salisbury

Mr & Mrs Salisbury have lived in their home for 11 years, the customers have been completing renovations to the house in order of priority. The property was part of a former station which was decommissioned in the 1960's, which was previously used by the rich and famous to reach a nearby manor house.

The previous windows and doors at the front of the house were mostly rotten, they were replaced with like for like new engineered timber windows and doors. The new windows and doors are painted in Farrow & Ball 'Parma Gray' externally and white internally.

Using engineered timber keeps the beautiful and tactile qualities of traditional wood but avoids the innate expansion and contraction issues that can occur from using solid wood.  Engineered (multi-layered) timber is created by layering wood sections, with the grain of one section being layered in the opposing direction to the grain of its neighbour.  Cleverly layering in this manner ensures any movement caused by absorption of moisture is evened out.

This leads to stronger, longer lasting windows and doors. Making sure they stay a perfect fit-just as the day they were installed.
