What are homes like around Uxbridge?
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.
London Clay shrinks and swells with the seasons, and street trees close to houses can contribute to movement, which affects foundation design.
For replacement windows in Uxbridge, this means checking things like wall construction, roof structure and existing services before we put a figure on paper.
Do you need permission in Uxbridge?
Which rules apply depends on where you live. For Uxbridge, the answer is England, and the points below reflect that; we verify them with the council before quoting.
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.
The four stages
Survey and measure
A free survey comes first. It gives us what we need to price replacement windows properly, including dimensions, existing materials and access for deliveries, and gives you the chance to ask anything you like.
Written quote
You get the price in writing, itemised so you can see where the money goes. As long as the specification stays the same, that is the price you pay for replacement windows.
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.
On site to finish
The job proceeds in the order set out in the programme, with dust and debris kept under control. Finally we tidy away, inspect the work together and pass the finished project over to you with its paperwork.
What you can expect from us
Frequently asked questions
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 much do replacement windows cost?
Replacement windows for a typical 3-bed semi cost £5,800–£11,500, depending on the number of windows, frame material and glazing. A single standard uPVC casement usually works out at roughly £500–£950 fitted, while aluminium, flush sash and sliding sash styles cost more. Bays, large panes and upstairs access add to the price. We measure every opening during the survey and give you a fixed price for the agreed specification.
Which postcodes in Uxbridge do you cover?
We cover SL0, UB8, UB9 and UB10, along with the rest of London. If your postcode is not listed, get in touch anyway: our coverage is UK-wide, and we can usually arrange a survey wherever you live. Enter your postcode in the guide-price tool or contact form and we will confirm.
Do I need planning permission for new windows?
Planning permission is not usually needed to replace windows with similar ones, but it depends on the size and style of the change, your home's location, whether it is listed or in a conservation area, and which UK nation you live in. Listed buildings normally need consent for any change, and some conservation areas restrict uPVC or new styles. Flats may also need the building owner's approval. We check the position for your property before quoting.
Should I choose uPVC or aluminium windows?
uPVC windows are the lower-cost choice, insulate well and need only occasional cleaning, which suits most houses. Aluminium windows have slimmer frames that let in more light and suit modern homes or large openings, but they cost more. Both come in a wide range of colours and finishes. We usually recommend matching the style and proportions of your home's original windows, especially on period properties.
