Choosing the correct windows and doors is essential for conservation areas or listed buildings. For new extensions, it’s crucial to choose a product that will enhance the contemporary designs. Alternatively, products working sympathetically with your house architecture and the surrounding area.

London homes in conservation areas.

The majority of London Boroughs have some form of conservation area. When it comes to new windows and doors for conservation areas, you need to respect planning regulations and rules.

Choose your window and door installer carefully and improve your London home in a conservation area. Open Living’s design office will happily assist you with the correct options.

We help with products suitable for ‘like for like’ replacements in material and look. Get it right and you usually won’t need planning permission either. Sliding and casement windows and windows in hardwood subframes are frequent examples. Ensure your windows offer the period features or a similar aesthetic to the originals such as putty lines, period hardware, or matching glazing bars.

Property Refurbishment, Conversions and extensions.

In London maximising your investment in your property is most easily achieved through refurbishment, conversion of existing space and extensions. Conversions and general property renovations solve the cost of moving to a larger London property when taking into account stamp duty, legal & moving expenses and the purchase price of the property itself.

Or, perhaps you just want to maximise on your property and create the leisure space you have always dreamed of, in which case you will have an investment that you can enjoy every day. Basement conversions in terraced or central London houses are often the only way of gaining space.

The specialist excavation, construction and design add substantial space to a property. Examples include additional living space, home cinemas, wine cellars, gyms, spa’s and pools. And for the glazing to these extra rooms, we help with floor to ceiling glazing, contemporary sliding doors, bifolding doors and patio doors.
