Beat your energy bills with the Everest Summer Sale

save energyAs we move into late summer, we may be enjoying the all too rare periods of warm, sunny weather, but sadly we all know that it never lasts! Many homeowners suffer from cold and draughts caused by old, worn out windows and doors, particularly during the winter months. With gas and electricity bills having more than doubled in the past ten years, being forced to turn your central heating up to higher temperatures for longer period of time can be seriously expensive.

Properly insulated doors and windows can make a big difference to your energy bills by minimising heat loss and cutting down draughts, meaning you’re far less reliant on central heating. We’re currently offering fantastic discounts of up to 35% off a huge selection of our products with the Everest Summer Sale, so there’s never been a better time to revamp your home. If you order now, your new double glazed windows and doors could be fully installed before you even feel the first winter chill!

All of our windows and doors are double glazed and specially designed for optimal thermal performance. Low emissivity glass reflects heat back into the room, while weather resistant seals help to prevent draughts. The sealed glass units feature a thin gap filled with argon to further optimise insulation. If you want to improve the insulation in your windows without fully replacing them, you can also install secondary windows, which will subtly fit behind your existing windows, maintaining the external character of your property but reducing heat loss and preventing draughts. All of our windows come with comprehensive long term guarantees, so you can enjoy perfect warmth and peace of mind for years to come.

In addition to taking advantage of our Summer Sale discounts, you could also earn £100s for your existing windows and doors with our Replace, Recycle, Reward scheme. We also offer 10% cash back if you pay for your new products with the Everest Home Finance scheme.

The best way to find out more about the benefits of installing new windows and doors is to make a free, no obligation appointment for a home consultation with a member of our team. Fill in our online appointments form or visit our summer sale homepage for more information. You can also call us on 0800 008 7126 to speak to one of our trained advisors.

Everest Staff Take On the Three Peaks Challenge!

Everest's team of intrepid ramblersAt Everest we have a complicated relationship with mountains. Due to our company name, we get quite a lot of misdirected enquiries about climbing gear and where to get hold of a decent Sherpa. We wonder if there’s a mountaineering company somewhere in Nepal that finds itself occasionally inundated with requests for top quality double glazing and fitted kitchens

As a part of our ongoing fundraising activities for Cancer Research UK, last month a group of our staff decided to settle the competition once and for all. It was quickly decided that attempting to scale Mount Everest would probably be a little bit too ambitious for a gang of novice ramblers from Hertfordshire, so they plumped for something closer to home and slightly less dangerous – the Three Peaks Challenge!

Everest’s Kerry Emmons Races For Life

At Everest we always like to celebrate the achievements of our staff members, which is why we’d like to extend a huge congratulations to Kerry Emmons from our Head Office Personnel team, who successfully completed the Cancer Research UK ‘Race For Life’ on Sunday 8th May.

Race for Life is the largest women-only fundraising event in the UK, inspiring women of all ages and fitness levels to run, walk or jog to raise money for Cancer Research UK. Like many of the women who get involved in the event, Kerry was running in memory of a loved one. She tragically lost her husband Terry Emmons to cancer seven years ago, and was inspired to complete the run in his honour.

“It was a great day and very emotional” says Kerry. “Terry was a really fun guy and very well respected by everyone who knew him. It felt like the right time to do this to honour his memory.” View all of this post >
