From Pig Sheds to Stellar Bungalows

Stellar Aluminium windows and doors from Epwin Window Systems were selected for a truly astonishing property conversion – two former pig sheds in Ingatestone, Essex, have been converted into two luxury bungalows. 

In total, 35 Stellar Flush Casement Windows and three French Doors were manufactured for the properties by Prestige Aluminium and installed by local installer V. Fullalove Installations Ltd.

Josh Fullalove, Project Manager at V. Fullalove Installations, said: “We recommended Stellar windows for this project because it ticked every box. We knew its aesthetics would bring the wow factor that would take the conversions to the next level. At the same time, it complies with the requirements of Part L and Part Q of Building Regulations as standard, so it’s an incredibly practical choice.”

David Kilworth, Managing Director of Prestige Aluminium, said: “We’ve worked with V. Fullalove Installations on a number of high-end Stellar Aluminium projects now. The system always adds value to a project, as these latest conversions so clearly show.”

Stellar Aluminium Flush Casement Windows are renowned for their high-end flush aesthetics. The patented knock-in glazing beads leave a clean gasket line that lifts the high-quality finish even further. In this project, the windows were manufactured in Anthracite Grey to provide a dramatic contrast to the original brickwork of the pig sheds. 

From the Building Regulations perspective, Stellar has helped the properties achieve the required thermal and security performance requirements. It’s Part L-compliant by design, even in new build properties, thanks to the patented reverse butt joint. This innovation means there’s no need for dummy sashes, reverse profiles or adaptors which reduces the amount of frame and increases the thermal efficiency.

Prestige Aluminium is a distinguished family-owned and operated Stellar fabricator that has a well-deserved reputation for its expertise in manufacturing high-quality aluminium products. 

V. Fullalove Installations Ltd is a family-run business with over 30 years’ experience in window and door installation services throughout Essex and its surrounding areas.

Both companies are securing valuable contracts with Stellar Aluminium because it delivers projects that combine extraordinary aesthetics with effortless compliance with Building Regulations. This exceptional conversion project is the perfect example.
