Twenty years in the building trade

Started on the tools

I've been in the building trade for 20 years now. I started out as an apprentice bricklayer and got my qualifications in building and brickwork while I was working for a groundworks company.

Site work had its downsides. Getting rained off was part of the job, and the more of it I did, the more I realised I'd rather be working on people's homes than on new build sites. With domestic work you're dealing with real houses and real customers, and you get to see a job through from start to finish.

Learning to fit

Installing runs in the family. My dad was a window installer, working with a friend of his, and that's where I learned the trade. I went on to get my FENSA installation and surveying qualifications, and I've been fitting windows and doors ever since. That's 14 years now.

Why my building background matters

Plenty of fitters can take a frame out and put a new one in. Because I trained as a bricklayer first, I can also sort out the work around the opening, and I can spot a problem with an opening before the new frame goes in, not after. See my building alterations work.

New openings
Adding a window or door where there wasn't one before, set out and built properly.
Widening and reducing
Making an existing opening bigger or smaller to suit a new window or door.
Window to door conversions
Turning a window into French, patio or bi-fold doors, with the building work and the fitting done together.
Lintels
The right lintel for the opening, so the wall above is properly supported.
Matching brickwork
Bricks and mortar matched so the alteration looks like it's always been there.
Problems spotted early
Issues with an opening picked up at the survey, not halfway through the fit.

What keeps me going

The best bit of the job for me is right at the end, when the customer sees the finished work and they're properly chuffed with it. Knowing people are happy with what I've done is a big part of why I still enjoy this after all these years.

It's why I'd rather take my time and get a job right than rush off to the next one, and it's why a lot of my work comes through recommendations.

What our customers are saying

Tommy did a brilliant job installing my new windows. From start to finish, he was reliable, professional, and a pleasure to deal with. Communication was excellent throughout the whole process, keeping me informed every step of the way. The quality of the installation is outstanding, and it's clear he takes great pride in his work. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tommy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, skilled installer. Thank you for such a fantastic job!

Gemma Littlemore

Tommy replaced all the windows and doors in our house. Our upstairs windows were actually illegal as we wouldn't have been able to get out of them during an emergency. I was very worried because of this and Tommy kindly booked us in asap. Unbelievably he replaced our front door, patio doors, back door, garage door and all the windows in one weekend for an extremely reasonable price. We left Tommy our keys and went away for the weekend and returned to a transformed house! He did an amazing job. All the windows are so neat. The front door is superb and totally draft free. Tommy also cleaned and hoovered up after himself and left the house spotless. Two years on and we're still so happy with the work Tommy did. I couldn't recommend him enough.

Megan

We had a window that randomly popped before we went on holiday, we phoned up Tommy, he was able to come and measure up the same day, get the replacement ordered and delivered 3 days later. Bear in mind it was a bespoke double glazing with lead! He knew how to work on a window like a real professional, had all the right tools, and he also went above and beyond by cleaning both windows! I mean, if only you could find more tradesmen like this.

Alex

Outstanding work from Tommy – couldn't be happier! Tommy recently fitted new door windows and soffits for us, and we are absolutely thrilled with the results. From start to finish, his work was professional, precise, and carried out with genuine care and attention to detail. He turned up exactly when he said he would, worked efficiently, and kept everything incredibly tidy – not always a given with building work! The finish on both the windows and the soffits is immaculate. You can tell Tommy takes real pride in his craft, and it shows in the quality of the final result. He also took the time to explain each stage of the process clearly, which gave us a lot of confidence. Nothing was rushed, and he clearly knows his trade inside and out. The transformation to our home is brilliant – it looks smarter, feels more secure, and we've already had compliments from neighbours. Highly recommended to anyone looking for skilled, reliable, and friendly service. Thanks again, Tommy – you've done a fantastic job!

Matt Bowler

I've used Tommy on two separate occasions and both of which he has been nothing short of a miracle worker! He replaced 2 huge windows in the upstairs bedrooms and I was so pleased with the fit itself and the effort to schedule it in quicker than the lead time - as one was hanging off the hinge! He is so polite, patient and very professional. I wouldn't use anyone else for windows going forward. Thanks Tommy!

Jade Boss

I had all of my windows and a door replaced by Tommy's Windows. From the first phone call Tommy was easy to communicate with, and was throughout. The quote was fair, the work was carried out rapidly and to a high standard, and they left me with next to nothing to tidy up after they had finished. All in all a great job was done. So yes I would recommend.

Lee Marks

Absolutely delighted with my new door but more than that, Tommy has been an absolute legend. Nothing was too much trouble and I wasn't the easiest of customers. Tommy and his team have been professional, friendly, and helpful throughout and the level of skill and care in fitting my door didn't go unnoticed. Thank you Tommy. If you're reading these reviews because you're considering a door from this company, do it! You'll not be disappointed.

Jenny

Tommy went above and beyond to make sure the windows and doors were finished with the best aesthetic finish to them. Very very happy with our windows and door to give a classy modern but still country cottage feel to the house. Would recommend anyone to use Tommy for window replacement or door replacement etc.

Trixie Shaw

Double glazed door fitted at my father in laws property. From start to finish good communication. Very helpful and understanding of our situation. Would have no problem to use again and to recommend.

Mark Pooley

Tommy responded to our original contact very quickly. He was able to arrange a site visit within a week and the cat flap was installed a week later. Tommy is very courteous and very obliging. Whilst here he fixed our bifold and serviced our doors. A great service, we only wish we had more work for him. Can wholeheartedly recommend Tommy Windows.

Julian Hendon

What a fabulous service, friendly, helpful, efficient, quick and a genuinely nice chap! The whole experience from first contact to installation of our Only Cat cat flap has been wonderful. Tommy even rehung our troublesome patio doors and fixed our bi-fold doors. What a star.

Jaqui Hoyle

Tommy fitted a cat flap into my French door - new glass panel measured, ordered and fitted within the week. Cat flap installed and helped carry to storage the spare glass panel. Tommy was efficient, tidy and friendly with great communication throughout via email and face to face. Absolutely recommended. Thanks.

Catherine

Tommy and Dave fitted new replacement windows I sourced and Tommy came back and enclosed our porch and fitted a new front door. Professional, expert, clean and organised. Know what you want from them and agree it and you properly couldn't ask for more. First class fitting.

Darren Peake

I am really pleased with Tommy's windows and would recommend them to anybody. He got the job done in a timely manner and for a fair price. Also he kept me well updated and was easy to communicate with.

I found Tommy to be polite, professional and knowledgeable. He was punctual and went out of his way to sort the problem with my door. I would definitely recommend Tommy and will be using him again.

Tommy replaced hinges on a friends double glazed window for us. He responded quickly to our initial enquiry, communicated well (which is refreshing) and did a very good job. I would definitely recommend Tommy's Windows.

We had a problematic front door that was really getting on our nerves. Tommy came over and sorted it out in no time. He was friendly and knew what he was doing. We know exactly where to go if we face any issues with our doors or windows in the future!
