Casement windowsmade to measure
The everyday window for most homes in the North East, fitted to your openings in white, colours or woodgrain.
Replacing tired windows, opening by opening
A casement window opens on hinges at the side or the top, like a small door. It’s the most common style on houses built from the 1930s onwards, and the easiest to tailor: you choose which panes open, which way they open, and whether the frame is plain or split with Georgian bars.
We survey every opening, so each frame is made to fit rather than packed out to size. The old frames come out, the new ones go in on proper fixings, and every gap is insulated and sealed before we trim and clean up.
What you can choose
Every casement window is built to order, so the layout is up to you. Common choices are:
- Which panes open and which stay fixed. Fixed panes let in more light because they have no opening frame.
- Side-hung or top-hung openers. Top-hung suits small vents above a main pane; side-hung gives a bigger opening.
- A fire escape hinge on upstairs bedroom windows, so the window opens wide enough to climb out.
- Georgian bars or a plain pane, to match the age of the house.
- Colour on one side or both. A popular choice is anthracite grey outside and white inside.
Warmer rooms and lower heating bills
Replacement windows in England have to meet the energy standards in Building Regulations, and modern double glazing easily beats single glazing or old sealed units that have misted. The difference you notice first is usually the draught that disappears around the frame, followed by quieter rooms on busy roads.
When windows are replaced, the rules also expect the room to stay properly ventilated. If your old windows had trickle vents, the new ones will too, and we’ll talk you through where they’re needed.
Security as standard
Openers close onto multi-point locking with key-locking handles, so a window can’t be levered open at one corner. Ground-floor windows can be fitted with internally beaded glass, which means the glass can’t be removed from outside.
After the fitting
We register the installation with FENSA, so you receive a certificate showing the work meets Building Regulations. The job is also covered by a HomePro insurance-backed guarantee of up to £15,000.

Common questions
Can’t see your question? Call 07733 408235 and ask.
How long does it take to replace the windows in a house?
It depends on how many there are and their size. A few windows can often be done in a day; a whole house usually takes longer. We’ll give you a timescale with your quote so you can plan around it.
Do you make a mess when you fit windows?
Taking frames out can loosen a little plaster and dust. We put down dust sheets, clear up as we go and take the old frames away with us.
Can I have coloured windows on the outside and white inside?
Yes. Many customers choose anthracite grey or black outside with white inside, so the rooms stay light and match existing decor.
Do new windows need to have trickle vents?
If your existing windows have trickle vents, the replacements should have them too, and some rooms may need them even if they didn’t before. We’ll check at the survey and explain why.
