Services
Windows
Our windows combine German-engineered Kommerling profiles with Energy A-rated efficiency. Designed for thermal insulation, security, and low maintenance, they suit modern and traditional properties. Installation includes UPVC, composite, and custom designs tailored to client preferences across Essex.
Doors
We supply and install composite, bi-folding, and patio doors with enhanced security features. Materials include UPVC, aluminium, and timber alternatives. Custom finishes ensure seamless integration with property aesthetics while improving thermal efficiency and durability for residential and commercial spaces.
Supalite Roofs
Supalite tiled roofs transform conservatories into year-round spaces with superior insulation. Compliant with building regulations, these lightweight roofs (46kg/m) offer temperature control and aesthetic versatility. Installation includes insurance-backed guarantees for structural integrity and energy efficiency.
Conservatories
We design and install Victorian, Edwardian, and modern conservatories with glass or tiled roofs. Bespoke configurations include bi-folding doors and energy-efficient glazing. Projects cater to residential clients seeking expanded living spaces with architectural coherence and thermal performance.
Emergency Glazing
Emergency services address broken glass, misted units, and lock failures with rapid response (30-90 minutes). Repairs cover single/double glazing, shop fronts, and commercial properties. Temporary boarding and same-day replacements ensure security and weatherproofing for urgent situations.

Questions
What window profile do you install?
We use Kommerling profiles, a German-engineered system renowned for durability and energy efficiency. This profile offers superior thermal performance and security features compared to standard market options.
Are your windows Energy A rated?
All our windows achieve Energy A efficiency (1.2 U-value), significantly outperforming older double-glazed units. This rating ensures optimal insulation while maintaining cost-effectiveness compared to A+ systems with minimal practical benefits.
Are your staff directly employed?
Yes, our installers have been with us for over eight years. Unlike subcontractor-based competitors, our permanent team ensures consistent quality control and accountability across all projects.
Do you offer commercial glazing services?
We provide comprehensive commercial solutions including shop fronts, office glazing, and large-scale installations. Recent projects include window replacements at The Tower Hotel and London Underground facilities.
What guarantees apply to installations?
Fensa-registered installations include an insurance-backed guarantee. Porch installations carry a 10-year quality assurance, while Supalite roofs follow manufacturer-specific warranty terms provided through our partnership agreements.
