In the quiet village of Scothern, Lincolnshire, nestled between lush greenery and timeless architecture, Mr & Mrs Marshall had a vision: clean lines, bold contrast, and a front entrance with presence. Their charming home deserved an upgrade that offered more than just functionality—it needed character, curb appeal, and craftsmanship. That’s where we at Roofriendly stepped in.
The Challenge: Blending Modern Aesthetics with Traditional Charm
Homes in Lincolnshire often walk a fine line between period charm and modern convenience. Mr & Mrs Marshall weren’t interested in a copy-paste solution. Their property had heart, but its ageing windows and lacklustre front door were dragging down both energy efficiency and visual appeal. They knew what they wanted: a modern look that wouldn’t overpower the traditional soul of their home.
Old frames had grown tired, letting in draughts and detracting from the home’s exterior. The front door failed to make the impact it once had, both in terms of style and security. Like many Lincolnshire homeowners, the Marshalls were conscious of energy bills and desired a home that stayed warm in winter without sacrificing looks.
Why They Chose Roofriendly
Let’s be honest—we’re not the only company fitting windows and doors in Lincolnshire. But Mr & Mrs Marshall knew that choosing a contractor is about more than a catalogue of products; it’s about trust.
They came to Roofriendly because they’d heard of our reputation for getting things right the first time. Our friendly, no-pressure consultations, clear timelines, and promise of quality workmanship gave them confidence. More than that, they appreciated that our team understood their brief from the outset: “sleek, modern finish that still fits beautifully with the character of the home.”
In their words, they didn’t just want new doors and windows. They wanted a transformation—something that would look purposeful, professionally guided, and make them smile every time they pulled into the drive.
Installation Details: From Concept to Completion
Our team began with a tailored site plan and specification, ensuring that both style and performance boxes were ticked. The star of the show? The rich black composite front door with glazed panels and a matching side window—a combination that turned heads and turned their entrance into a focal point.
As for the windows, we installed crisp, UPVC units with black frames that provide superb thermal performance and ultra-low maintenance. Every component was measured and manufactured to exacting standards to ensure a seamless fit—vital for thermal retention and long-term durability.
The installation was carried out over just a couple of days by our experienced in-house team (no subcontractors, no hassle). We minimised disruption to the customer while maximising results—clean, professional, and ready ahead of schedule. And the bonus? We’ll be back in spring to install new gutters and give the finishing touches to this ongoing transformation.
The Result: Stylish, Secure and Ready for Every Season
The transformation is nothing short of stunning. The bold black frames deliver a high-contrast aesthetic that harmonises with the original architecture, striking a rare balance between contemporary edge and traditional elegance.
Practical advantages aren’t in short supply either. UPVC frames and composite doors are built for British weather—they retain heat, reduce external noise, and shrug off rain, wind, and chill without breaking a sweat. Added multi-point locking systems also mean improved home security for the Marshalls—peace of mind bundled with property value.
Whether it’s winter warmth or summer shading, this home now performs as beautifully as it looks. And judging by the smiles on our customers’ faces, we’d say the proof is parked right there on their driveway.
