06About us

A glazing firm that would rather be judged on the paperwork.

No showroom theatre and no discount that expires at nine tonight. A surveyor, a works, seven fitting teams, and a written specification you can hold us to afterwards.

07What we are

A firm that makes and fits, rather than sells and subcontracts.

The difference shows up in the parts of a job you cannot see from a brochure: who turns up to measure, whether the person fitting your windows has ever met the person who quoted them, and who answers the phone in eighteen months when a hinge needs adjusting.

Because the works and the fitting teams are the same business, a survey mistake is our problem to absorb rather than an argument between two companies with your house in the middle. That single fact shapes how carefully the survey gets done.

It also means we will occasionally talk you out of something. A sound door that has dropped needs a hinge adjustment, not a replacement. A house with a bare loft will get more back from a hundred pounds of mineral wool than from triple glazing. Saying so costs us one sale and tends to earn the next one.

How a job
actually runs

Five stages · one team

01Survey

Somebody measures every opening

They check the lintel, the reveal depth and the sill condition, and photograph anything that will change the price. They are paid to measure rather than on commission — which is why they can afford to tell you the job is smaller than you thought.

02The quote

One page, one price, no expiry

Sizes, profile, glass make-up, hardware, the access method and the exact scope of making good. There is no better number available if you hesitate, and no manager to ring for a special rate.

03Making

Cut to your sizes

Frames cut, welded and cleaned to the surveyed dimensions, sealed units made to suit. Ten to fourteen working days is typical. You are given the week it will be ready, and told if that changes.

04Fitting

The same two people, start to finish

Old frames out, new frames packed and fixed to centres, sealed inside and out with low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, reveals made good. Dust sheets down, debris away with us.

05Sign-off

Checked against what we promised

Every opening tried for operation, seal and square against the original specification. Certificates and guarantee paperwork handed over. The job closes when you have signed the sheet.

Read this before publishing

Every figure in this table is a placeholder written to a plausible industry pattern. Guarantee terms are a contractual promise — replace this table with your actual terms, and only claim insurance-backed cover if a policy is genuinely in place.

Condensation, honestly

New windows do not cause condensation. They stop the draughts that were quietly removing the moisture your household already produced — cooking, washing, drying, breathing — and it now shows on the coldest surface in the room, which is the glass.

The fix is ventilation rather than glazing: use the trickle vents, run the extractor for longer, and stop drying washing on radiators. Misting between the panes is a different thing entirely — that is a failed unit, and it is covered.

Accreditations

Deliberately blank
Nothing is claimed here yet

This site does not display FENSA, CERTASS, TrustMark, Which? Trusted Trader or any insurance-backed guarantee badge, because none has been verified. If WGW holds a scheme membership, add the badge and the registration number here. If it does not, delete this section — displaying a scheme logo without membership is a criminal offence under consumer protection law, and customers do check.

Competent person

Replacement windows and doors are notifiable work. Confirm which scheme registers your installations, and put the registration number on the quote and the certificate.

Insurance

Public liability and employer's liability cover, with the sums insured stated. Give the actual figures rather than the phrase "fully insured", which means very little.

Deposit protection

If deposits are protected by a scheme or held in a client account, say which. If they are not protected, do not imply that they are.

08Where we work

Two bases, one hour out from each.

Every line in the guarantee table above is worth exactly as much as our willingness to drive back out and honour it. So we keep the map small enough that driving back out is never a debate.
