Glazerite and CR Smith modernise a period property without losing character

Buying a traditional sandstone property in the West of Scotland comes with challenges, not least the question of how to modernise the building without losing its period charm. Achieving a beautiful finish along with energy efficiency takes specialist care and advanced engineering.

CR Smith, Scotland’s leading home improvement company, has been working with Glazerite for over 5 years, designing and installing sliding sash windows that meet the demands of Scotland’s changeable weather and diverse architectural styles.

In this Kilmacolm home, sliding sash windows in anthracite grey provide a stylish contrast to the building’s red sandstone façade. The windows emulate the elegance of the original sash-and-case style, complete with deep bottom rails, authentic ironmongery, and decorative plant on astragals, all with the advantages of modern engineering.

Hugh Eadie, Operations Director at CR Smith

“Advanced double-glazed windows can enhance a home’s energy efficiency and complement its character. The working partnership we have with Glazerite means we are always looking to innovate to replicate and enhance the elegance of traditional sash and case windows.”
