White or Anthracite Grey Window/Bifold Door on Extension???
Comments (17)Sliding doors are proving very popular at the moment as they can stack to one side and not protrude into the garden space and be easier to move than full set of bi-folds so that would an approximate opening of about 4m with 3 x 1.250m (plus frame ) panel of glass that would all stack in parallel inline. Or you could try panoramic doors they are more versatile as they are detachable from each other and give you more options for you layout at the finish. There a tutorial on you tube ? Do you have building control on these works as I am finding that architects are making us use a lot more steel as in a goal post design for stability, depending on how wide you want to go with the opening?...See More‘Off white render’?!? With stone?
Comments (7)Hi, I think it looks lovely :) Your house will look fresh and modern. What a fab update. For the render, what about still going for fresh with white but with a softer undertone? Not cream, but a white with some cream in it? Not sure I explain properly :) For exemple, F&B Wimborne white is a softer white, not as stark. Still definitively white but softer. Maybe visit a pain shop (like F&B for exemple) with one of your stone and see what work with it? :)...See MoreI have a white rendered 1920s semi. And in process of replacing window
Comments (5)Had a quick google and most people with 1920s houses seem to have white window frames, but I found a few with greyish frames. I particularly love the first house. The second one has the black Crittal style windows which I was thinking of, but I’m wondering if that is more 1930s?...See MoreAluminium window colour advice please
Comments (0)I’m struggling to decide what colour aluminium windows to choose. We plan to replace all our windows and doors with aluminium flush casement ones (veering towards either Origin or Stellar windows at the moment), but can only afford to replace the rear of the house for time being. The style of each window would be similar to now with a top opener/skylight, but below that a 50/50 split casement window (since we're replacing, we now have to have an opening that meets fire safety requirements). Our house is pebble dash and currently painted magnolia which I hate. The plan is to repaint the render white as that is in keeping with the rest of the street and my other half is not keen on a coloured render. I think however that white windows with white render would just “disappear” and as our house has little in the way of architectural features back or front, the window style is the only way we can add any character. We've rejected modern grey windows as we think they may date, but have looked at both black frames, black frames with a white opening casement (window) and less dramatically white windows and frames with a black sill. The house is 1920s so incorporating black into the look would be in keeping. I’ve attached photos of the rear of our house, plus examples of all the ideas above that I’ve found online. (ignore the window features like leaded lights etc, these examples are just for the colours of the frames/window and sills). Any suggestions/advice would be appreciated. I've attached a photo of the front of our house as well for info, although we don't plan to replace these windows for a year or so. On a separate note, we plan to enlarge the window in the single storey rear extension on the bottom right of the photo, by dropping the sill down so that we can have a window seat inside overlooking our garden as it's a lovely spot for reading/relaxing. I’d like it to be a fixed frame window without any openers (we have French doors on the side of the extension and we never use the current top openers in the window anyway) but I wonder if it would look odd given the rest of the windows will have top openers or dummy ones. Or is it better to just go for it and make a statement with a large fixed frame feature window? Would welcome some advice on this too. Thanks...See More

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoI presume you will be wishing to render the whole house?? I'd check what's under the 'tiles' at the top there. That style of tiling is often done on roofing battens with membrane behind and not brick. Therefore, it would not immediately lend itself to being rendered.
If this is the case you could consider an alternative covering from Marley for instance who sell a good selection of products for roofs, fascias, cladding etc Marley
I'd start by bricking half the large window of the lounge and bringing it out of the 60's / 70's. Change the fascias and the red tiles. You can even dye the brickwork instead of rendering dyebrick
You can even colour bond the UPVC windows and fascias if you wish so as not to have the expense of replacing them. colour bonding example
