There’s something truly satisfying about watching a house brighten up with a modern upgrade — and that’s exactly what happened at Mr & Mrs Maxted’s lovely red-brick home in Brant Broughton. Nestled in this peaceful Lincolnshire village, their property just received a much-needed refresh in the form of crisp white energy-efficient uPVC windows and a stylish diamond-glazed front door. And let’s just say, the kerb appeal is officially dialled up to 11!
The Challenge: Ageing Windows and Lost Efficiency
Like many older homes in Brant Broughton—and indeed across Lincolnshire—the Maxteds’ previous windows were struggling. They were drafty, outdated, and taking a toll on the home’s energy performance. Rising heating bills were a growing frustration, and the lack of insulation meant comfort was seasonal at best. Aesthetically, the windows simply didn’t reflect the charm of their home, and the front door lacked both modern security features and pizazz.
Why They Chose Roofriendly
Mr & Mrs Maxted told us what drew them to Roofriendly: our straightforward, no-nonsense advice and strong local reputation. They didn’t want pressure sales tactics or vague promises — they wanted honest input, practical recommendations, and a trusted team with genuine attention to detail. Our reputation across Lincoln and surrounding areas like Brant Broughton gave them confidence. We’re not just here to fit windows — we’re here to improve homes, provide clarity, and leave a lasting impression.
Designing the Right Look and Feel
After an in-depth consultation, we worked closely with the Maxteds to pinpoint a solution that ticked all the boxes: insulation, safety, and style. Together, we selected high-quality white uPVC window frames that contrast beautifully against their traditional red brick. It’s a classic choice with a contemporary edge. For the front door, they opted for a diamond-glazed design that allows natural light into the hallway while maintaining privacy. It’s practical, secure, and undeniably eye-catching.
Installation: Done Right, First Time
Our installation team arrived promptly, fully briefed, and ready to get stuck in. Because we manufacture to order, every window and the bespoke door slot perfectly into place—minimising disruption and maximising efficiency. As always, we treated the home like our own: protective coverings, respectful timing, and a thorough clean-up afterward. From the removal of old fittings to the final polish, everything was taken care of by our skilled local installers.
The Results: Style, Security, and Savings
Now that the job’s complete, the improvements speak for themselves. The Maxteds’ home feels noticeably warmer and quieter thanks to double glazing and thermal efficiency upgrades. Their new front door provides enhanced security features—multi-point locking and toughened glazing—giving them greater peace of mind. And visually? The glowing white trims breathe new life into their home’s exterior, blending heritage charm with modern finesse.
Even better, the couple now enjoy improved energy savings that will offer real value over the long term—not to mention reduced maintenance thanks to the durable, weather-resistant materials we use.
