Trade supply at the core

Windows Etc started its journey as a trade-only supplier. It’s still the core of what we do. Plenty of our projects are about how the glazing looks. A lot of what we do is working alongside property developers and builders, to choose the right products for the job. Foundation Properties know their client set well, they build attractive bungalows for retired and semi-retired people with a view that they should be dependable, affordable and easy to maintain.

The glazing specification

This project led us to a ubiquitous solution of Duraflex double glazing with an emphasis on durability. To pair with that, we used Residor range for the composite doors at the front of each property. The glazing and doors were fitted by one of the Windows Etc on-site teams, and we worked alongside the building team to make sure that the installation was a smooth as possible.

What Foundation Properties said

Testimonial from Joe Lait, Foundation Properties: After working with other glazing companies in the past we are so happy to have Windows Etc as part of our team of approved trades working with Foundation Properties.

It’s really difficult to find specialists who care as much as we do, and who back up all of their promises with good old fashioned honesty and service.

They’ve got a great range of products to suit what we need, and they’re efficiently measured and installed by NVQ trained professionals. It means the very best glazing and after-care is there for all the families moving into our new homes.
