Warm Guard Windows · Manchester & West Yorkshire Surveyed · Made · Fitted

01Manchester & West Yorkshire

Made for the house you have, not the brochure.

We survey, make and fit windows, doors, conservatories and roofline across Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire. Every frame is built to the opening our surveyor measured — and we will tell you when your house needs less than you came in for.

Free survey, no obligation Made to your measured sizes Fitted by our own team 10 year guarantee

02Why it matters

Two houses on the same street rarely need the same windows.

One has stone reveals and a lintel that has moved. The next has been rendered and re-pointed and is perfectly square. Order both from a catalogue and one of them gets packed out with foam and trim to hide the difference.

So we measure first and price afterwards. The surveyor is paid to measure rather than on commission, which is why they can afford to tell you that your frames are sound and the draught is coming from under the floor.

What we make
and fit

Four things · done properly

Windows

Casement, tilt-and-turn, flush sash and vertical slider, in uPVC or aluminium. Cut to the opening our surveyor measured, not to the nearest size in a catalogue.

04Old and new

Drag the handle. That is the whole sales pitch.

On the left, an original timber window at the end of its life — paint gone, putty perished, single glazed, and letting the weather straight through the gaps. On the right, a new sealed unit in a frame cut to the same opening.

Most of what we do is exactly this swap. Same hole in the wall, a warmer and quieter room behind it.

03Houses like yours

We work on ordinary northern houses, and we are glad of it.

Stone terraces, inter-war semis, seventies estates and the occasional farmhouse. Not show homes — the sort of house that has settled a bit and has opinions.

An honest caveat

Glazing is roughly a fifth of the heat leaving a typical older house. Walls and the loft are the bigger share. If your loft is bare we will say so — a hundred pounds of insulation beats a thousand pounds of glass every time.

the door to signing off

Five stages · one team

01Survey

Somebody measures every opening

Including the awkward one behind the bath. They check the lintel, the reveal depth and the sill, and photograph anything that will change the price. Allow forty minutes for a full house.

02The quote

One page, one price, no countdown

Sizes, profile, glass make-up, hardware and exactly how far we make good. It arrives by email a couple of days later and it does not expire. There is no better number available if you hesitate.

03Making

Cut to your sizes, not to a stock list

Frames are cut and welded to the surveyed dimensions and the sealed units made to suit. Ten to fourteen working days is normal, and you are told the week rather than the season.

04Fitting

The same two people, start to finish

Dust sheets down, old frames out, new frames packed and fixed properly, sealed inside and out, reveals made good to a paint-ready finish. The debris leaves with us.

05Sign-off

Checked against what we promised

Every opening tried for operation, seal and square, certificates and guarantee paperwork handed over, and the job closes when you have signed the sheet — not when the van pulls away.

What people say

Placeholder copy · see README

“The surveyor spotted that two of our lintels wanted attention before anything was ordered. It put a week on the job and saved us a much bigger one later.”

Placeholder · Bradford · Full house

“Fourth quote we had, and the first one that told us what glass was actually going in the hole. No evening phone calls afterwards either, which was a relief.”

Placeholder · Leeds · 14 openings

“Three days, no mess left behind, and they came back to adjust a door that had dropped slightly without any argument about whose fault it was.”

09Where we work

Two bases, one hour out from each.

A guarantee is worth exactly as much as our willingness to drive back out and honour it. So we keep the map small enough that returning to adjust a hinge in eighteen months is a short trip rather than a debate.

10Next step

Have somebody come and measure. Decide afterwards.

The survey is free, there is no obligation, and nobody will sit in your kitchen waiting for a signature. If it turns out not to be right for you, that is a perfectly acceptable outcome.
