No Tricks… Just Treats! 🎃 A Week Of Great Work Across Sussex
Halloween’s nearly here, and while the trick-or-treaters are sorting out their costumes, the Shaws teams have been busy handing out treats of their own – new windows and doors for homes right across Brighton, Hove and Sussex. Here’s what we’ve been up to.
🏡 Front To Back: A Victorian Home, Transformed
Our star of the week is a classic red-brick Victorian terrace that’s had the full Shaws treatment, front to back.
At the front, new white vertical sliding sash windows fill both bays, upstairs and down. The traditional look the house was built with – now with modern double glazing and sashes that glide up and down with ease.
Round the back is where the real treat is. A brand-new kitchen extension opens onto the garden through two sets of anthracite grey bi-fold doors, meeting at the corner. Fold them back and the kitchen and patio become one big space – perfect for summer get-togethers. And for everyday use, there’s a handy door on each side of the corner, so you can pop out to the garden without opening the whole set.
From the inside, it’s floor-to-ceiling glass on two sides, with the herringbone floor running right up to the threshold. Big glass. Slim frames. Great view.
Finishing it all off: white French doors with a glazed toplight, plus new sash windows in the kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom – with obscure glass for privacy above the roll-top bath.
Darker Evenings? Time For A Front Door Upgrade
The clocks went back last weekend, so it’s darker earlier and our front doors are working harder. This week we fitted a rich dark red composite front door with decorative glazing and a glazed toplight above – the perfect partner for the original Victorian tiled path. Warm, secure and full of kerb appeal.
Heritage Looks, Modern Aluminium
Sleek black heritage-style aluminium windows and French doors on a bungalow, with reeded glass for privacy just where it’s needed. And on a barn conversion, a black heritage aluminium door is in – while the rest of the build takes shape around it. We’ll share the finished result!
A Balcony With A View
We also fitted a new glazed screen on a balcony – adding shelter and privacy while keeping all the light and the view.
No Tricks At Shaws Either
Halloween might be all about tricks, but you won’t find any here. Just genuine prices, no misleading discounts and no pressure – the same honest approach we’ve had since 1970.
A big thank you to our fitting teams – a whole house front to back, plus everything else, all in one week. That’s some serious treat-giving! 👏
