This directory does not confirm registration. Window and door installers self-certify their work against Building Regulations through a Competent Person Scheme — mainly FENSA or Certass — so check the company name or postcode (LE3 6HE) directly on the FENSA or Certass website before booking, and ask to see the certificate number.

Use the "Get Free Quotes" form on this page. Your job details go to FENSA or Certass registered installers covering the LE postcode area, who contact you directly. Leicester has 198 registered window and glazing businesses in this directory, though the installers who quote are not necessarily among them. It is free and there is no obligation.

Repair makes sense for a failed seal (misted double glazing), a worn handle or hinge, or a damaged lock on an otherwise sound frame — usually a straightforward swap. Replacement is the better value once frames are warped, draughty, rotten (on timber) or past roughly 20 to 25 years old, or when several units across the house have failed. Ask the installer to price both where it's borderline.

uPVC frames typically carry a 10 year manufacturer or insurance-backed guarantee, and sealed glazed units are usually guaranteed separately for 5 to 10 years against misting. Register the guarantee after installation and keep the FENSA or Certass certificate — a buyer's solicitor will ask for it if you sell the property.

This directory holds 361 active window and glazing businesses across 31 towns in Leicestershire, all from the Companies House register. Leicester accounts for 198, among the county's busiest. About 30% of Leicestershire's registered window and glazing firms were incorporated in the last three years, so weigh incorporation date and FENSA/Certass registration, not just company age.
