To whom it may concern,

I came across you company in a blog and you guys came highly recommended, i was wondering if you would like to quote for the following project.

We have recently bought an end of terrace Victorian house in North London: 36 Duckett Road, N4 1BN. The house is not in a conservation area. We have hired an energy consultant to guide us through some renovations that will – hopefully -- take the house to the PassivHaus EnerPHit levels of energy usage, rather than the current annual space heating demand for the house of 272 kWh/m2.year.

In order to do that the first step we are undertaking is to apply external insulation to the house and to change all the windows which are currently original wooden single glazed windows.

Our general strategy will be triple glazed for north-facing and bathroom windows, double glazing for the remainder which are mostly south- with a few east-facing. All windows should open inwards.

Here are the windows for which we are looking for a quotation:

GROUND FLOOR: FRONT OF THE HOUSE TRIPLE GLAZED (north facing) sash window appearance.

All the measurement are of glass opening:

VESTIBULE TRIPLE GLAZED:
W1 :  960Wx2060H

LIBRARY bay window TRIPLE GLAZED:
W2:  960Wx2060H, W3 960Wx2060H, W4 960Wx2060H

KITCHEN bay (east-facing side of the house -- currently traditional Victorian sash windows but does not need to remain so) DOUBLE GLAZED bay:
W5 340Wx1590H, W6 1040Wx1590H, W7 340Wx1590H

BATHROOM 1 (east-facing) TRIPLE GLAZED:
W8 730Wx1220H

Future guest BEDROOM (currently kitchen) DOUBLE GLAZED:
W9 1040Wx1440H

Son Sam’s BEDROOM front of the house TRIPLE GLAZED (north facing) sash window appearance:

W10 960Wx1740H
W11 960Wx1740H

Son Jake’s BEDROOM front of the house TRIPLE GLAZED (north facing) bay sash window appearance:
W12 960Wx1740H
W13 960Wx1740H
W14 960Wx1740H

Master BEDROOM south facing DOUBLE GLAZED:
W15 1040Wx1560H

Master bedroom’s BATHROOM south facing TRIPLE GLAZED:
W16 840Wx1730H

Future STUDY/OFFICE (currently living room) DOUBLE GLAZED:
W17 1040Wx1440H
W18 1400Wx1440H

BATHROOM 3 TRIPLE GLAZED:
W19 500Wx1400H

We are also in the process of opening up the south facing facade of the house with an opening that is roughly 4400mm in height by 3000mm in width. The bottom part will have sliding doors that also tilt and the top part is a fixed panel. For this opening we were thinking of double glazing as we would like to use the sun as a mean of heating (a concrete floor inside will work as  thermal mass). Please let me know if this is something you guys do. Could you also let me know what the difference in price will be if instead we go for triple glazing?
There is also a double sliding door  measuring 1400wx2300h triple glazed, again in needs to tilt in. Lastly a fixed panel (triple glaze) which measure 1800wx1700h.

Please let me know if all makes sense.

I look forward in hearing from you.


Please let me know if you need any further information.

Kind regards,
