FINALIST LINE-UP FOR
HISTORIC RENOVATION
»»Timber window and door
specialist ERW Joinery Ltd is delighted to
be part of the prestigious line-up of finalists
in the G-15 Commercial Project of the Year
category.
This is not the first time this family-run
business from Teeside has made it through
to the finals, having won the G-10 Retail
Promotional Campaign of the Year. This
year, however, it’s the commercial part of
the business that is getting the recognition
with ERW’s project to renovate the historic
Tynemouth Volunteer Life Brigade Museum.
Philip Wall, ERW’s Commercial Manager,
comments: “The old, rather romantic, Grade
II listed wooden building looks out over the
mouth of the Tyne and the notorious Black
Middens rocks and is now occupied by the
RNLI and HM Coastguard. In total our
specialist team carried out the overhaul and
repair of 39 vertical sliding sash windows, two
casement windows, as well as six hardwood
inward opening casement windows.

“As specialists in renovation and
restoration, we are invited to work on some
truly historic and prestigious buildings.
The Watch House Museum project was
particularly special as we were able to utilise
our extensive knowledge of timber to recreate some unique sash windows within the
circular ‘lamp room’ and to overhaul a wide
selection of historical vertical sliding sash and
casements. Working alongside Kier North
& MGM Specialist Construction Ltd, we
were able to transform this building whilst
protecting the original and unique artefacts
held within.
“Joining some of the big global brands
in the G-Award shortlist is a further
endorsement of our work and whether we
win or not, we’re really looking forward to
celebrating in London in November.”
Museum Secretary, John Wright,
from the Watch Tower

The Icing on the Cake
»»RegaLead is delighted at
the news that it has achieved a shortlist place
in the G-15 Awards’ Component Supplier of
the Year category.
Guy Hubble, Joint Managing Director or
RegaLead comments: “To be shortlisted
by the judges is a huge achievement
and the RegaLead team is really excited,
particularly as it came in the same week
that our Decorative Door Products (DDP)
Division has reached the final of the
National Fenestration Awards in the IGU
Manufacturer of the Year category.
“We uniquely supply components
specifically designed to add value through

decoration, enabling our
customers to profit further
down the supply chain. We
invested heavily in our
business in order to extend
this value across the flat
glass, composite door and
glass processing sectors so it’s
fantastic to see our hard work
rewarded with a place in the finals
at the G-15 Awards. Obviously, a
win would be the icing on the cake, but
ultimately we are enjoying the recognition
and are incredibly proud to have been
included in such an impressive shortlist.”
