Professional brise soleil across Colchester and Essex — free surveys and fixed written quotations.
Professional brise soleil across Colchester and Essex — free surveys and fixed written quotations.
We are Colchester's curtain walling specialists. Whether you need brise soleil for a new build, a refurbishment or an urgent repair, our Essex installation teams deliver CWCT-standard work with full certification.
Brise soleil provides passive solar shading, cutting summer heat gain through glazed facades and reducing cooling loads — often a planning or BREEAM requirement on heavily glazed elevations.
We install horizontal projecting systems above glazing, vertical fins on east/west elevations, and full louvre screens, all in PPC aluminium matched to the curtain walling.
Brackets fix back through the curtain wall mullions to structure, so shading is engineered with the facade, not bolted on afterwards.
Because we cover the whole of Essex from regional teams, Colchester projects get genuine local service: quick site visits, local supply chain familiarity and installers who are back on patch the next day if you need them.
Every project starts with a free, no-obligation site survey and a fixed written quotation — no estimates that drift.
Installation follows Centre for Window and Cladding Technology standards with documented quality checks at every stage.
Regional teams across the UK mean local service with national capability.
Phased programmes, temporary weathering and out-of-hours working keep buildings in use during facade work.

Yes. Every system we install is thermally broken and specified to meet current Building Regulations Part L requirements as a minimum, with upgraded glass options available.
