Front Door renovation suggestions


JMB2012

Recommended Posts

We live in a 1930s house with all original front door, door frame and leaded lights. They are not in too bad condition but they are tired looking and I want them to look beautiful and smart. I would also like to increase the insulation by getting the glass encapsulated in new timber frame double glazed units, putting insulation board on the inside walls and re-plastering, and of course renovating the door itself with a new paint job, filling in old lock holes and smart new door furniture.


Has anyone done this locally and could you recommend someone who might take on the job? I think we are maybe looking at more than one trades person. My main focus is the front door itself and the leaded lights.


Any suggestions?


Many thanks.

    • Thanks to the EDF recommendations, we got in touch with John Marx to install our kitchen. Email: John and Gabi: [email protected] We couldn't be happier with the work done by John. From the initial meeting to the finishing touches, John was fantastic.  He listened carefully to what we wanted, offered helpful suggestions, and provided a clear quote. Throughout the entire process, John was incredibly hard working. He was punctual, and always kept the work area as tidy as possible, which we really appreciated.  What impressed us most was his ability to solve problems.  As with any project, a few unexpected issues arose, but John tackled each one with a calm and practical approach, always explaining the options and finding the best solution. We would recommend his plumber too. The end result is a beautiful, functional kitchen that we love.  I highly recommend John for any building or kitchen fitting project. You won't be disappointed.
    • Thanks! Yeah thought it would be a long shot lol but you never know! I bought a Pioneer FLX-4 last year and absolutely love it, but now really want to kick it up a gear with something stand alone rather than having the laptop in the mix. Been doing some parties etc and playing on some bigger gear and it's even more fun! Do you DJ as well?
    • A big ask, I know! If anyone has Lego they are happy to donate, it would be very, very appreciated. This is for secondary school therapy sessions. We have a budget but it's small and Lego is expensive. We already provide games, food, toiletries only partly covered by our budget (I'm sure you know what it's like) but we have a child who has specifically asked for lego. This would be for use in therapy sessions - not for playtimes or to take home.  Thankyou
    • Good luck, don't think you would find anyone selling controllers on here 🤣 What controller you using atm?
