Garage Window Replacement in Mere, Wiltshire – Timber to uPVC Georgian Style Upgrade
At Goldhillglazing, we recently completed a garage window replacement in Mere, Wiltshire, transforming an old, damaged single-glazed timber frame into a modern, energy-efficient uPVC unit.
The Original Window Condition
The existing window was a timber-framed, single-glazed unit that had seen significant deterioration over time. Multiple panes were broken, the frame was weathered, and overall it offered very little in terms of insulation or security.
This type of window is common in older garages and outbuildings across Mere, Gillingham, Shaftesbury, Warminster, and surrounding Dorset/Wiltshire areas, and often becomes a weak point for heat loss and security.
The Upgrade – Modern uPVC Georgian Style Window
We replaced the original unit with a high-quality white uPVC window, featuring:
- Georgian bar design to maintain a traditional look
- Double glazing for improved insulation and reduced heat loss
- Toughened safety glass suitable for outbuildings and garages
- Trickle vent for controlled airflow and condensation prevention
- Low-maintenance uPVC frame – no more painting or rot issues
The new installation keeps the character of the building while massively improving performance.
The Result
The transformation is immediate:
- A secure, fully sealed unit replacing broken glass
- A much cleaner and brighter appearance
- Improved thermal efficiency, even in a garage setting
- Long-term durability with zero ongoing maintenance
This is a perfect example of how even a small window upgrade can make a big difference to both appearance and practicality.
