Highlights

"We used Colne Valley windows to supply and fit a new front door and replace hinges on upvc windows. Delighted with the results and an excellent service from start to finish from a professional and friendly team. Job finished on time and exactly as quoted. Would definitely use again."

"This was the first time we have used the services of Colne Valley Windows and they were really excellent.. Lee arrived on time to measure for windows and a door- there was no pressure to buy. Throughout the whole process the communication has been really good. On the day of fitting the windows and door, Lee and Sam were very efficient and professional, and they cleaned up when the job was finished. Everything looks really great and we can already feel the difference (especially the new front door)... I cannot recommend them enough !"

"Colne Valley Windows came in with a competitive quote and we liked them on that first visit. Friendly, efficient, helpful, talking through options and giving us the information we needed. The follow up was prompt and the contact very good. They carried out the works - a front door and a bay window - with great care and consideration. They even fixed another window for us. We are delighted with the result. Can thoroughly recommend them."

We had our new door fitted on 3rd November 2025 and we couldn’t be happier. From start to finish from Colne Valley Windows, they have been amazing. Lee the door fitter is so friendly and professional and done an amazing job fitting our new door. I would definitely recommend them and use them again.

A first-class service received from Colne Valley Windows, from initial contact and showroom visit, site survey and quote, through to completion of the installation of our new windows, front door, fascia, soffit and guttering. We’ve been impressed with the company’s professionalism and the quality of the products and installation, and their helpfulness and communication throughout the entire process has been excellent. It’s been a very pleasing experience to deal with such a friendly, skilled and trustworthy family-run company, and we highly recommend them.

This is the second time we have used Colne Valley Windows and again we have been very pleased with the result. They came to measure up for quoting vey quickly and when we had some questions these were ansered in full promptly. On the day of installation they arrived on time and put done a covering to protect the carpets. Installtion was swift and without iusse, once completed they then tidied the areas they had worked in. Both new upstairs and downstairs windows look extremely good!

The team was exceptionally great when it came to getting our quotes sorted, going above and beyond to try to get us the back door that we wanted. Further to that, the contractor was very friendly and helpful, and the back door looks amazing - couldn't be happier with it!

From initial contact to final completion I cannot fault Colne Valley Windows. We already had a conservatory, but after 22 years it was not fit for purpose. The new conservatory was erected on the existing walls and a tiled roof was installed to replace the existing clear composite roof. We now have a ‘garden room’ we can use all year round. After completion of this work they were instructed to replace the French doors between lounge and conservatory with a sliding patio door to give a more usual space. I would recommend Colne Valley Windows to anyone who wants a conservatory/sunroom.

Lee could have got away with selling me a new back door, but instead he offered to mend the old one, and agreed to adjust other doors, for a really good price that saved me hundreds. He's also fitted a front door that is really smart a couple of years on. And he's local.

We required several misted upvc window units replaced and Colne Valley Windows provided a very competitive quote. From measuring to finally fitting the units we were kept fully informed on how the order was progressing .When the units were actually replaced the fitters arrived punctually at the designated time, and did a very clean and tidy installation, even to the extent of placing plastic overshoes over their outdoor shoes to protect our carpets. Highly recommended.

One of the reasons why I chose Colne Valley Windows was due to the reviews and ratings on here. I can't praise Colne Valley enough. The windows are really good quality and were a good price. Lee, Sam and Paul did a really good job of installing them, were polite and friendly, and I think, left the place cleaner than before they arrived. Communication with Charley throughout the process was excellent, quick, informative and helpful.

"Architect" is a title protected by law - only people on the official Architects Register (held by ARB) may use it. Confirm they're on it before you commission a design.

Check the Architects Register
Smart checks

Before you hire an architect

Only someone on the Architects Registration Board (ARB) register may legally call themselves an 'architect' in the UK — ask for their ARB number and check it free at arb.org.uk. An 'architectural designer' or 'technologist' is a different, unregistered role (often capable, but not the same protection).
Agree how they charge before any work starts — a percentage of the build cost, a fixed fee, or an hourly rate — and exactly which stages it covers (concept design, planning application, building-regulations drawings, work on site), so there are no surprises later.
Confirm what they will actually handle versus what is excluded — the planning application, the building-control drawings, and whether they will administer the builder's contract on site — and get it, and a portfolio of similar projects, in writing.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
