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.

    • I am at The Gardens. I saw GP on a Wednesday and he recommended physio, he checked availability and offered Tessa Jowell Centre for Saturday at 1 pm or Forest Hill Road Practice on a Monday at 11 am. I chose FH- very efficient/ Physio at FH very helpful, sent me some neck exercises and referred me for spinal assessment at Kings.
    • Of course, people's experiences may vary, but I'm afraid I can't recommend the DMC on Crystal Palace Rd.
    • Option 1.  Let them go bust.  Government takes over, until an appropriate solution found.  This happens with failing train operating companies  Option 2.  Anyone who made money on the privatisation, or their immediate descendants, bail them out  Obviously the latter isn't going to happen but makes me feel better/superior. What do you reckon?  Big picture.  Small picture as I posted elsewhere is that they were good when we had a leaking main.  And of course mass redundancies need to be avoided.
