About

Academy Windows: domestic installation of quality uPVC and aluminium windows, doors and conservatories. With 30 years industry experience we have earned the trust of many thousands of customers. We are a FENSA registered business, the industry gold standard for replacement windows and doors. Choose Academy Windows and you are choosing quality products and service during and beyond your installation. We are happy to honour our guarantee because we believe in the quality of our products and service.

Our manufacturing arm, Windows Direct, make all our own windows, doors and conservatories in our factory in Brightlingsea. We use, as far as possible, British made components (i.e. hinges, locks and handles) which are more expensive but far superior to the mass produced products from the Far East. This ethos has gained us recognition as one of the leading manufacturers of uPVC products in the United Kingdom.

Replaced three windows, two large. It was done to agreed schedule and budget. Explained things. Answered questions fully and politely. The workmen were considerate, tidy, seemed very efficient. The work looks 'neat' and careful. Nothing has yet fine wrong. Considering having more work done (Would not hesitate if finances were open ended, more window work and wooden fascia's and soffits) A friend replacing UPVC recommended them. The mand from FENSA said everything is perfect.

VERY PLEASED WITH OUR NEW FRONT DOOR. FITTER TURNED UP VERY PROMPTLY AND CARRIED OUT WORK TO A HIGH STANDARD OF WORKMANSHIP. WE HAVE USED ACADEMY WINDOWS PREVIOUSLY FOR A CONSERVATORY AND PATIO DOOR AND WOULD HAVE NO HESITATION IN RECOMMENDING THEM.

The fitter did a great job at changing the old wood framed window. He removed the old frame and fitted the new one in a professional manner with little mess or damage to plaster. Well satisfied overall.

Academy Windows were incredible from the initial appointment with Tony through to the works being completed. The quality of the finish is superb and they even managed to finish a day ahead of schedule. Would have no hesitation in recommending them to friends and family.

Academy Windows took down my old conservatory and replaced it with a new one. Also replaced the double glazing. They did an excellent job. I was not happy with the front bay window sill. They changed it without any problems. All the staff were polite,helpful and hard working. They kept me informed all the time. I will highly recommend Academy Windows to family and friends Thanks Aran and his great team once again Margaret
