A Stylish Chartwell Green Upgrade for a Semi-Detached Home
Windows and doors can completely transform the look and feel of a home. For this semi-detached home in Glen Parva, the homeowner wanted to replace tired white frames with something more modern, while also improving warmth, security and kerb appeal.
The result was a full-house transformation in Chartwell green, with new uPVC windows, a composite front door and matching French doors to the rear.
Project Overview
The homeowner contacted Phair Windows looking for a complete replacement of their existing windows and doors. The aim was to improve the appearance of the property with a fresh new colour scheme, while also upgrading performance across the home.
We supplied and installed new Chartwell green uPVC windows throughout, along with a new composite front door and matching French doors to the rear.
The Problem
The existing windows and doors were old, inefficient and no longer suited the property. They were letting in draughts, offered limited thermal performance, and the doors were missing the modern security features expected from a new installation.


The homeowner also wanted to give the home a more distinctive finish, with a colour that would lift the exterior and add a little more character.
The Process
Our team got to work carefully removed the existing white uPVC windows, front door and French doors before preparing the property for the new installation.
We then fitted:
- A+ rated Chartwell green uPVC windows throughout.
- A secure Chartwell green composite front door.
- Matching Chartwell green French doors to the rear.


Each product was chosen to complement the home’s style while improving insulation, security and everyday performance.
The Result
The finished installation has completely refreshed the property in Glen Parva. The new windows and doors have improved the home’s overall appearance, while also helping to reduce draughts and improve heat retention.
The Chartwell green finish gives the property a softer, more elegant look than the original white frames, adding real kerb appeal and a more individual feel.


Customer Outcome
The homeowner is delighted with the transformation and has noticed a big improvement in how warm and comfortable the property feels.
As well as looking smarter from the outside, the home now feels more secure, more efficient and better suited to the homeowner’s personal style.

FAQs
A full house window and door replacement cost depends on the size of your home, the number of windows, the style you choose, and whether you’re adding composite, aluminium or uPVC doors.
In Leicestershire, a typical semi‑detached house with a full suite of uPVC windows and one or two new doors often starts in the mid‑thousands, but the exact figure varies from property to property.
Because every home is different, we always begin with a free, no‑obligation survey and quote so you know the true cost upfront, with no hidden extras.
Yes. Chartwell green is one of our most popular colour options and can be used across uPVC windows, composite doors and French doors to give your home a softer, more distinctive look.
In most standard cases, replacing windows and doors with like‑for‑like or similar styles and materials does not require planning permission, as long as you’re not altering the size or appearance of openings in a way that affects the character of the building.
However, listed properties, homes in conservation areas or certain developments may have extra rules, so we’ll check your address and advise you clearly during the survey and quotation stage.
Our installers work as cleanly and considerately as possible, using protective coverings on floors and furnishings and keeping dust and debris to a minimum.
