Double-glazed windows

Yes it feels like winter again!!

Only a couple of windows need replacing but I need to ensure they are as secure as possible as well as keeping the cold out and warm in.

From what I've been reading a lot of the national companies are unrelieable or sharks so would prefer to find someone fairly local (Yorks preferably north).

Can anyone please point me in the right direction of someone who will do a proper job first time, with well made and secure windows and not costing the earth. I really need to keep the precious hard-earned heat in, credit crunch or not!

    I have used them on three occasions and they have always done top flight work with the best materials and really good workmen and staff. In addition, they dont do pressure selling. They use quality Kommerling profiles and materials not the cheapo rubbish. In fact only last month i had one of their special offer front doors fitted just in time for winter. Again another top job. If anyone in the NW needs a window and door quote but doesnt want to deal with fly by night pressure selling cowboys then i thoroughly recommend this company.
