How it works: windows and doors in Leeds

No showroom, no salesman, no hard sell. Just James and a skilled local team who fit every job properly. Here’s exactly what happens from your first call to your 10-year guarantee.

Five steps, start to finish

Getting new windows or doors should be straightforward. With Wortley Windows it is. We’re a family-run firm based in Lower Wortley (LS12), and James has been fitting windows across Leeds for over 20 years. Donna runs the office and sorts your quote. There’s no call centre and no pushy salesman knocking on doors. Here’s how the whole thing works.

Step 1 — Get in touch

Give us a ring on 07967 667535, or fill in the quick quote form and we’ll come back to you. Tell us roughly what you’re after: a couple of windows, a new front door, a full house. You don’t need to know the technical details. Donna will take a few notes and book James in to come and have a proper look. There’s nothing to commit to at this stage, and no pressure to decide anything on the phone.

Step 2 — James comes for a free survey

We turn up and measure up properly. He’ll look at the state of your existing frames, check the openings, talk through your options, and answer your questions honestly. Because he’s the one who’ll be fitting the job, he’s surveying it through a fitter’s eyes, not a salesman’s. If something won’t work, he’ll tell you. If there’s a cheaper way to get what you want, he’ll point it out. The survey is free, and it’s yours whether you decide to go ahead or not.

Step 3 — An honest written quote

After the survey you get a clear, written quote. It spells out what you’re getting and what it costs, with no hidden extras bolted on later. We won’t inflate the price so we can pretend to drop it. The number we give you is the number.

If you’d like a rough idea before James visits, here are typical Leeds prices, supplied and fitted. Treat these as a guide, not a quote — every house is different:

  • uPVC windows — around £900 to £1,500 per window
  • Composite doors — around £1,500 to £2,500
  • Bay windows — around £1,500 to £3,500
  • Bi-fold doors — from around £3,000, up to £10,000+ for larger spans
  • A full 3-bed semi (8 to 10 windows) — around £5,000 to £12,000

The average home in LS12 sits at an EPC rating of D, and over half across the area are rated D to G, so newer windows often make a noticeable difference to draughts and warmth. If you’d rather not pay it all up front, you can spread the cost with finance. Your quote is yours to think over — there’s no time-limited discount forcing your hand.

Step 4 — Our team fits it

When you’re ready to go ahead, our own team does the work. The same person who quoted the job carries it out, so nothing gets lost between a salesman’s promise and the fitter’s reality. We turn up when we say we will, treat your home with respect, clear up after ourselves, and take the old frames away. Whatever you’ve chosen gets fitted properly, first time.

Step 5 — Your CERTASS certificate and 10-year guarantee

Once the job’s done, your installation is registered under CERTASS, a government-authorised competent-person scheme. That means the work is self-certified to Building Regulations and registered for you — there’s no separate council application to chase. CERTASS does the same job as FENSA. You get your certificate, and every installation is covered by our 10-year guarantee. We’re based right here in Leeds and we’re not going anywhere, so if you ever need us after the job, you know where we are.

Where we work

We’re in Lower Wortley (LS12) and cover Leeds and the surrounding area — Pudsey, Bramley, Armley, Kirkstall, Horsforth, Farsley, Stanningley, Calverley and Morley among them. We’re rated 5.0 out of 5 from 72 five-star reviews on Birdeye. Sponsoring Norristhorpe Juniors FC and supporting the Raising Smiles charity is our way of putting a bit back into the place we work.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the whole process take?
It varies with the size of the job and how busy we are, but the steps are always the same: a quick call, a free survey with James, a written quote, then fitting once you've decided. James will give you a realistic timeframe at the survey so you know where you stand. There's no pressure to commit on the day.
Is the survey really free?
Yes. James comes out, measures up and talks through your options at no cost, and it's entirely up to you whether you go ahead. If the job isn't right for you, that's fine — you've lost nothing but a cup of tea. Ring 07967 667535 or use the quick quote form to book one in.
Will James actually fit my windows, or is it subcontracted out?
We fit every job with our own skilled team, on site. He's the owner and a tradesman with over 20 years in the trade, so the person who quotes your job is the person who carries it out. Nothing gets lost between a salesman and a fitter.
What is CERTASS and do I need to tell the council?
CERTASS is a government-authorised competent-person scheme. It lets us self-certify your installation to Building Regulations and register it for you, so there's no separate council application to make. It does the same job as FENSA. You get a certificate once the work is done.
What's covered by the 10-year guarantee?
Every installation we carry out comes with a 10-year guarantee. We're a family-run firm based in Lower Wortley, so if anything needs looking at down the line, you can reach us easily. See the guarantee page for the full detail, or ask Donna when you call.
