Common window specialist services
Choose a professional whose experience matches the scale and practical requirements of your job.
Survey and replacement of frames with appropriately specified uPVC windows and glazing.
Repair, draught improvement or replacement of sash-style windows where proportions and historic appearance can matter.
Replacement or repair of multi-section bay windows where angles, support and access need careful measurement.

London window permissions
Many London homes can use standard replacement routes, but the capital also has an unusually large concentration of conservation areas and listed buildings.
The London Plan records more than 1,000 conservation areas and around 19,000 list entries for historic buildings. Individual boroughs can also use Article 4 directions to remove normal permitted-development rights. Check the exact property before assuming a standard replacement frame is acceptable.
Historic England explains that works to listed buildings can require listed-building consent, while Article 4 directions can introduce planning controls in conservation areas. Its retrofit guidance generally favours repairing and sensitively upgrading significant historic windows rather than automatically replacing them.
Local to London
Window specialists may cover London by survey area and product type. Example areas include:
If a home is listed or subject to conservation-area controls, frame material, glazing bars, colour and sightlines may matter. Establish the approval position before manufacture.
How it works
Window count, style, access and heritage status help installers judge product fit and survey requirements.
Add the postcode, photos, number and style of windows, floor levels and whether frames or glass units are being replaced.
Up to three interested London window professionals can respond.
Check reviews, frame and glass specification, warranty, installation, making good and permissions.
Before you hire
The right window has to suit the building, perform properly and comply with any approval requirements that apply.
Compare frame profile, opening style, glazing, hardware, ventilation and colour rather than only unit count.
For listed buildings or controlled conservation areas, establish the approval route before frames are manufactured.
Ask who removes old units, repairs reveals and supplies relevant compliance documentation.
