insulation and heating

OVERVIEW

This beautiful Welsh chapel was built in 1877 by Victorian architect William Pritchard Roberts. After falling into disrepair, with the help of local architects Dobson Owen, the chapel was eventually converted into luxury living accommodation.

Insulation and heating in a chapel conversion can be challenging due to high ceilings and numerous large windows.

WHAT WE DID

We installed 20 secondary glazed units throughout the property, covering all windows. Adaptations were made to improve functionality, including the use of hinged units to enhance ease of use.
