D.a.b Joinery Contractors Ltd

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 (L22 2AW) directly on the FENSA or Certass website before booking, and ask to see the certificate number.

The registered company name, registered office address, Companies House number and incorporation date, all taken from the public Companies House register. It does not include reviews, prices, staff details, or confirmation that the company is currently trading.

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 729 active window and glazing businesses across 43 towns in Merseyside, all from the Companies House register. Liverpool accounts for 280, among the county's busiest. About 41% of Merseyside'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.
