There’s something deeply satisfying about a home that just works—where style, function, and security all blend seamlessly. For Mr & Mrs Harmston in Wainfleet, Lincolnshire, that perfect blend came in the form of a sleek new composite front door, installed by our Roofriendly team. And let’s be honest—it looks absolutely stunning against their brickwork.
The Challenge: A Tired Entrance That No Longer Reflected the Home
When we first chatted with the Harmstons, they described their existing front door as “just there”—not offensive, but definitely not inspiring. It was showing signs of age, a bit weathered, drafty in winter, and not giving them the peace of mind they wanted when it came to security. More importantly, it didn’t match the little design details they had invested in elsewhere—from dressy window trims to a freshly cleaned patio.
And the front door? It’s not just a door—it’s the opening act to your home’s personality. Which is why homeowners across Lincolnshire are turning to composite doors for a dramatic upgrade in kerb appeal, energy efficiency, and overall security. The Harmstons were ready to make the leap.
Why the Harmstons Chose Roofriendly
As long-time Lincolnshire locals, the Harmstons had been keeping an eye on reputable providers in the area for a while. They appreciated businesses that combine reliable workmanship with a personal touch—something they found abundantly clear in Roofriendly’s online reviews, local presence, and transparent quoting process.
But what really sealed the deal? According to Mr Harmston, it was “just how easy the team made it to visualise the new door in place.” From initial consultation to helping pick that perfect soft grey shade with a vertical glazed panel, we guided every step with clarity and care. For the Harmstons, that guidance was priceless.
The Installation: Swift, Smooth, Spot On
Once we had signed off on the design, our installation team arrived onsite with the same friendly, professional service we’re known for across Lincolnshire. Removing the old door was a breeze, and our team took great care not to disturb any of the surrounding brickwork or entryway features the Harmstons had recently invested in.
The new composite door went in cleanly and securely. Special attention was given to insulating around the frame to maximise thermal efficiency—a key reason many homeowners choose composite over traditional timber or uPVC. The vertical glazed panel was aligned perfectly to ensure optimal natural light while maintaining full privacy.
The Results: A Brighter Entrance, a Warmer Home, a Happier Family
Once the final clean-up was done, the difference was immediate. The soft grey composite finish doesn’t just complement the brickwork—it elevates the entire façade. Internally, the hallway is now brighter, thanks to the long vertical glazed panel, which lets daylight stream in without compromising security.
Better insulated, the Harmstons are already noticing fewer draughts and more consistent temperatures—so their decision will pay off in lower energy bills this winter. And with advanced multi-point locking and a robust high-density core, this door doesn’t just look strong—it actually is.
Why Composite Doors Are Gaining Momentum in Lincolnshire Homes
Composite doors like the one installed for the Harmstons are built for modern families with classic values—security, durability, and aesthetics. Unlike uPVC or timber, composite doors combine materials like timber, foam, and GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) to resist warping, cracking, and weather damage. They’re low-maintenance, highly secure, and perfect for Lincolnshire’s ever-changing climate.
