Professional brise soleil across St Ives and Cambridgeshire — free surveys and fixed written quotations.
We are St Ives's curtain walling specialists. Whether you need brise soleil for a new build, a refurbishment or an urgent repair, our Cambridgeshire 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.
St Ives sits within our core Cambridgeshire coverage area, which means fast survey appointments, realistic lead times and an installation team that can return quickly for snagging or future phases.
Every completed installation is handed over with warranties, test records and compliance documentation.
Our installers are directly employed facade specialists, not general subcontract labour.
Every project starts with a free, no-obligation site survey and a fixed written quotation — no estimates that drift.
All systems are specified to meet current Part L thermal requirements as a minimum.
Installations carry our workmanship warranty alongside manufacturer system and coating warranties — typically 10 to 25 years depending on the system, with all documentation provided at handover.
