Replacement windows are new frames and sealed double- or triple-glazed units fitted into your existing openings after the old windows are taken out, improving warmth, security and noise reduction while meeting current building regulations.
We take on replacement windows throughout Southall and the surrounding UB1, UB2, UB5 and UB6 postcodes, as well as in Greenford, Heston and Hayes. The guide range for this work in London is £5,800–£11,500 including VAT; where your project falls depends on its size, the materials you pick and how easy the site is to reach. A free survey turns that range into a fixed figure.

Local housing and replacement windows
London's housing is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, often in yellow London stock brick, with Georgian terraces in central districts and mansion blocks across many inner areas. Outer boroughs have large belts of interwar semis, and there are extensive post-war council estates. Many houses have been split into flats, and conservation areas are widespread.
Terraces suit side-return extensions and rear dormer loft conversions; interwar semis commonly take hip-to-gable lofts. Shared party walls, restricted parking and conservation rules often shape the plans and the programme.
For replacement windows in Southall, this means checking things like wall construction, roof structure and existing services before we put a figure on paper.
Do you need permission in Southall?
For anyone in Southall, the relevant framework is England's. The summary below is general, so we always contact the council about your address before putting a price in writing.
Replacing windows and doors on a house is usually permitted development in England when the new ones look broadly similar to the old. Flats, listed buildings and homes covered by an Article 4 direction can need consent, and conservation areas may limit materials or styles.
Replacement windows and external doors must meet Building Regulations for energy efficiency, ventilation and, on upper floors, escape. The work is either self-certified by an installer registered with a competent person scheme or signed off by building control.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
From survey to handover
We look at the job
First, someone visits your home in Southall to see the space, take measurements and note anything that could affect the work, such as access or the condition of what is there. There is no charge for this visit.
Quote in writing
The quote arrives in writing, not over the phone. It covers the full scope, the finishes you've chosen, any exclusions and the payment schedule, with a fixed price tied to that specification.
Dates and permissions
Once you accept, we agree start dates, order materials and deal with any planning, building control or neighbour notices the job needs. You'll know who is coming and when before work begins.
The work itself
The work is carried out to the agreed specification, with floors and furniture protected and the site kept tidy. At the end we clean up, walk through the finished job with you and hand over any certificates.
Why homeowners choose us
Common questions
Who do I deal with during the job?
One point of contact manages your project from survey to handover. They schedule the trades working under our contract, keep you updated on progress, and are the person to call with any question. You don't need to coordinate builders, electricians or decorators separately, because that is part of what we do.
What happens at the survey?
We visit your home at a time that suits you, look at the area involved, take measurements and check access, condition and any services that might be affected. We talk through what you want from replacement windows, explain the options and answer questions. There is no charge and no obligation; afterwards we send a written quote.
How long does it take to fit windows in a house?
Fitting replacement windows in a typical 3-bed house usually takes one to two days on site. We take out and fit one window at a time, so each room is weathertight again within an hour or two. Bays, sash windows and homes needing scaffolding take longer. Manufacture comes first: made-to-measure frames typically take a few weeks to arrive after the survey and your order are confirmed.
What happens on the day the windows are fitted?
On fitting day we lay dust sheets, protect floors and furniture near each window, and then remove the old frame carefully to limit damage to plaster. The new frame is fixed, packed, sealed and glazed, and internal trims and external cills are finished. We take away the old windows and clean the glass before leaving. You only need to clear sills and take down curtains and blinds.
Is triple glazing worth paying extra for?
Triple glazing adds a third pane of glass, which cuts heat loss and outside noise further than standard double glazing. It typically adds around a third to the cost of the glass units and makes opening sashes heavier. It makes most sense on cold or noisy elevations, or in homes being upgraded to a high energy standard. For many houses, modern double glazing with a warm edge spacer gives most of the benefit for less money.
