Whether you are planning a full renovation or quick improvement to your Worcestershire or West Midlands home, these expert-backed trends will inspire your next upgrade.
Home Improvement Trends 2026: Windows
In 2026, homeowners are prioritising window improvements that do more than just open and close. With energy bills rising and our role in helping the environment growing, advanced glazing technologies are in demand.
- Low Maintenance
uPVC and aluminium windows require low maintenance to look their best. With this, our windows will continue to perform while only needing occasional maintenance. The framework will never bow or warp, while the colour finish will never fade.
- High Security
Here at Pears, we acknowledge how important home security is for homeowners. With this, all our locks are made from high grade, durable materials. They are fitted at multiple points around windows, protecting you and your home.
- Weatherproofing
Our windows are fitted with quality weatherseals as standard. When partnered with the natural waterproof design of the uPVC or aluminium, your home is fully protected against the harsh British weather.
Modern windows are no longer just functional, they are key design features. Sleek frames and technological glass panes provide your home with improved thermal efficiency, security and weather protection.
Home Improvement Trends 2026: Orangeries
In 2026, Orangeries are becoming Worcestershire’s most popular home extension options. Once seen as a more traditional design choice, they are now a popular option for homeowners in both modern and period homes. Combining the best elements of airy conservatories and robust house extensions and offer the perfect middle-ground between the two.
- Quality Brickwork
Orangeries are easily identified compared with conservatories. They are designed with larger portions of brick, which replaces much of the glazing. The addition of quality brickwork reduces heat loss and durability, while also improving your overall home security.
- Kerb appeal
Orangeries are perhaps the most sought after extension style on the market. Having one installed is a great way of improving the kerb appeal of your home. Your home could prove to be much more appealing to potential homebuyers in the future.
- Weatherproof
Each window and door we fit in our orangeries comes with quality weatherseals. These are complemented by the watertight lantern roof. The two work in harmony to ensure you’re completely protected all through the year, even during the most torrential rain or harshest wind speeds.
This trend reflects a broader market shift, homeowners want space to enjoy their home, rather than just adding decorative additions.
Home Improvement Trends 2026: Glazing
In 2026, comfort is becoming a big catalyst behind homeowners making improvements to their homes. Drafts, temperature fluctuations and condensation are common issues in older homes, but with our market leading Planitherm glazing will help significantly.
- Planitherm Glazing
As members of their approved installer network, we fit Planitherm Comfort and Comfort Plus glass in our windows. The market’s leading glass, you get the complete year round performance from this modern double glazing.
- Thermal Insulation
Our glazing is designed with low-emission coatings and insulation gases to reduce the heat transferring through the glass. With our Low-E coatings, they act as a barrier, to reflect and control the heat while also allowing light to come through. Preventing heat loss during the winter and keeping your cool in the summer.
- Durability
Another benefit of our glazing is less likely to be prone to condensation. Unlike low performance glass, it will be more difficult for air and water to build up within the glass. Making them better protected in different climates.
