When the Cathedral Road Synagogue in Cardiff closed in 1989, its stained-glass windows went missing. Now, however, the panels have resurfaced — in a shed renovation that a UK garden supplies company named best budget shed of 2021.
Double glazing is one of the most effective ways to improve your home’s energy efficiency. It helps prevent heat loss and reduces heat movement in both directions, preventing your property from overheating in the summer.
Double Glazed Windows
A double glazed window is made up of two panes of glass with a gap between them which is filled with an insulating gas. These gases prevent heat escaping from your home or building in the winter and it keeps the room cooler in the summer.
Double glazing helps to significantly reduce your energy bills by blocking heat from escaping or entering the property. It also helps to insulate your property from noise pollution such as traffic or noisy neighbors.
The Monmouthshire Window Company sources its double glazed windows from some incredible manufacturers including Smart, Door-Stop and Residence 9. All of our double glazed windows come with a 10-year manufacturer’s guarantee and a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee.
Casement Windows
Our UPVC casement windows are hinged on one side and crank open outward to the left or right allowing for full top to bottom ventilation. They are perfect for hard to reach areas such as over kitchen sinks. They offer a wide range of benefits such as keeping cool air in during the summer and warm air in during the winter. They are also highly energy efficient thanks to their triple chambered profile and are much easier to clean than sash windows.
Compared to other window styles, they offer greater views and more opportunity to enjoy your surroundings due to the unobstructed glass. Easily installed into any style of home, they can be used alone or in combination with other window types. They also come with a range of colour options to match your current decor. They’re also a safer option than many other types of window, as they’re harder to break into due to their fusion-welded seal and main frame.
Sliding Sash Windows
Sliding sash windows are the most sought after window style for period properties. They’re characterised by their sliding “sashes”, which move vertically to open and close the window.
These sashes sit in frames with vertical grooves and are counterbalanced by weights connected to sash cords hidden within the frame. This allows the windows to slide up and down without rubbing against each other or damaging them.
We replaced the original timber box sash windows with new PVCu uPVC sliding sash windows to modernise the property. The sash windows are fitted with double glazing, a thin mid rail and deep bottom rail for an authentic aesthetic. They also feature traditional putty lines and sash lifts, and come in a variety of eye-catching colours. Apertures at the bottom and top allow for ventilation, allowing cool air to circulate throughout the home and helping to remove dust. The uPVC sash windows also feature multi-locking systems, offering an extra level of security.
Flush Sash Windows
The ultimate choice in luxury for your home improvement project, our flush sash windows deliver an authentic look to enhance your property and increase its value. Flawlessly manufactured by Deceuninck, they are a perfect alternative to traditional timber frames and come in a range of authentic woodgrain foil finishes.
When closed the window sash sits flush with the frame to offer a clean appearance that replicates the timeless style of period properties throughout South Wales. Their uPVC construction offers superior thermal efficiency, allowing you to reduce your heating costs and enjoy a warm and cosy home all year round.
Our flush casement windows also feature high security performance to protect your home from intruders, with a useful night vent locking position and PAS 24 approval. They are made bespoke to your home to ensure they fit perfectly and are easy to maintain.
