EXTERNAL ENVELOPE


Casements and Cocktails – the party house hosting George Barnsdale windows and doors

All products are Secured by Design, made from FSC certified timber and kind to the environment. The unique four stage paint technique means George Barnsdale windows and doors won’t require repainting for at least ten years, but usually considerably longer than that.
