Orangery Showroom in Nottingham Update

Posted on April 18, 2012 by admin

We are working hard to build a show site that will house 3 orangeries and 3 conservatories at our showroom in Chilwell, Nottingham. Already we have seen a positive response to the Chartwell Green Orangery at our showroom. We are in the progress of completing a black aluminium orangery and a rendered orangery with bi-fold doors.

In a few weeks time all 3 will be complete and will be a perfect place to visit should you require an orangery. Basfords will become Nottingham’s Orangery Specialist.

3D modelling software enables us to design your orangery to how you want, we can even print off a free copy for you. Right now we are seeing an interest of an orangery with bi-fold doors. Create a stunning space.

If you are looking for an experienced company and a quality product without the inflated price then look no further than Basfords. We are constantly building orangeries and have a lot of advice to give.

Right now we an orangery offer where if you buy an orangery from Basfords you can choose from a range of Porcelanosa tiles for free.

R9 Residence is the new double glazing for listed buildings!

Posted on April 12, 2012 by admin

Timber Alternative Windows woodgrain effect

If you have a listed building and looking to replace your wooden windows with more energy efficient glazing then the R9 Residence window is the perfect choice.

Getting planning to replace windows in listed building can be troublesome but with the R9 you will have no worries. It has been purpose built to cater for listed buildings, furthermore it has incredible energy efficiency rating.

A few of the qualities:

  • Nine chambers – great strength and thermal efficiency
  • 100mm outer frame – just like timber
  • Mechanically jointed outer frame – just like timber
  • Flush fit sash – just like timber
  • Choice of foils – feels like timber
  • Colour through the substrate
  • Double or Triple glazed
  • 0.8 window ‘U’ value easily achieved

The cost to replace windows in a listed building

The cost will vary window to window depending on the style and dimensions required. White will always be the cheapest price. To upgrade to a colour would add 20%-30% to the cost of the windows. We have completed jobs for as little as £400 right up to £50,000+ projects. Each project is different and will require a bespoke service.

We at Basfords can offer the complete service, from initial advice right through to completion. Our team of architects, surveyors and fitters are there to see your project runs smoothly. Our office staff are always there to keep you informed. If you need help with planning or initial advice we offer that. Feel free to contact david@basfords.com for more information.

Liniar Bi Fold Plus Door – UPVC Bi Folding Doors

Posted on March 1, 2012 by admin

We have tried many UPVC bi fold doors but nothing compares to the Liniar Bi Fold Plus. We like it so much that it’s the only UPVC bi fold door we offer. Liniar’s bi fold door will transform, modernise and add real value to your home. Your home will be lighter and brighter.

Our bi-folding doors are some of the most attaractive, simple to use, energy efficient and secure on the market. Designed to enhance your home they will maximise the space available.

Fully opened Liniar’s Bi-Folds are slim and unobtrusive, and when closed they offer all the benefits of a modern double glazed patio door.

Slim frames give you more glass, less PVC-U and more natural light. The hardware is consealed so only the hinge knuckles show.

Low threshold options are ideal for wheelchair users and family homes as they create fewer trip hazards for the elderly and the very young.

Altogether, the PVC-U bi folding door from Liniar has few equals, in fact we would go as far to say they are the best on the market. Stay tuned for the launch of our aluminium bi fold doors.

Replacement Double Glazing Before and After Photos

Posted on November 18, 2011 by admin

Mr & Mrs Walker from Nottingham accepted our quotation to replace their old rosewood windows with new A Rated windows from Basfords. The images below show the rear of the house which included:

- 1 Bathroom window
- 2 Bedroom windows
- 1 Lounge window
- 1 Kitchen window
- 2 Rear PVCu doors

This is the image of their old windows:

Not only were they inefficient at keeping the heat in they also looked tired. Our new windows are A Rated which means they are the most energy efficient windows money can buy. Installing them in a property like this could save Mr & Mrs Walker £165 per year on their heating bills.

The after shot shows our windows and doors installed:

Mrs Walker said “We are absolutely delighted with the windows and doors, the design and how well Mark and Wayne fitted them. What good workers they are !”

Introducing the Ultimate Patio Door

Posted on July 13, 2011 by admin

There are absolutely no compromises with the Ultimate patio door range from Basfords. Stylish, strong and energy efficient, it is the first door to be granted Secured By Design status – the Police’s highest security accolade.

Householders will no longer sacrifice strength and energy efficiency for the largest window in their home, the patio door. That’s why each Ultimate patio door is manufactured using the highest grade materials and to the finest of tolerances to provide a tight seal that keeps the winter’s chill and summer’s heat at bay. In short, patio doors you can live with for a long, long time.

Watch the video below for an insight into this new patio door design.

There are no compromises with this door when it comes to security. A locking system that rivals the best on the market and re-inforced frames make this a truly durable door.

Unlike other designs, this patio door looks great as well as being highly secure. Before this design, other doors were too clunky if they were safe and too flimsy if there were design focused.

We are giving our customers who are looking for patio doors in Nottingham the best of both worlds when it comes to choosing the right patio door. This door is highly secure, glazed for security and energy efficiency, adapted for easy access, choices of colours and locking systems.

If you are interested in a new patio door contact us today on 0115 9705500.

Could this be the world’s biggest conservatory?

Posted on May 24, 2011 by admin

Our Managing Director Craig Deaton is at it again, this time building what is widely believed to be the world’s biggest conservatory.

Mr Deaton has written to the Guinness Book of World Records and is waiting to discover if the conservatory is a record-breaker.

Is this the World's Largest Conservatory?

He said most large glass structures are built on aluminium frames because of the weight, whereas his, like most household conservatories; is made out of PVC and has no pillars supporting the roof.

“It took a while to work it all out” Said our Maning Director Craig. The roof was made by Sutton-in-Ashfield based company Synseal.

“It is the biggest roof we have ever done” said sales and marketing director Nick Dutton.

“I don’t know whether it is the biggest in the world, it would be very difficult to say. But it’s impressive.”

The inside is not yet decorated, but the owner, Norman Oley, owner of Arena UK, in Allington Lane, intends to use it as a bar-restaurant.

He said “In the summer nobody wants to come inside, and in the winter nobody wants to be outside, so with this we get the best of both worlds.”

The inside will be turned into a bar-restaurant

This is another example of how Basfords differs from the rest; we don’t conform we like to innovate.
