Windows, doors, rooflights and conservatories in Burnham

Yes. Burnham is one of our closest working areas — we're based in Iver, roughly 3 miles from the village centre. We cover the whole SL1 area including Burnham village, Lent Rise, Taplow Road and the estates to the north and east. We can usually arrange a home visit within a few days of you getting in touch.

For most properties in Burnham's conservation area, like-for-like window and door replacement in a matching style, material and colour can proceed without a planning application. The practical position is that if you're replacing what's already there with something of similar appearance, permitted development rights typically apply. Where your property has original features, is adjacent to a listed building, or you want to change style or material significantly, we'd advise seeking pre-application advice from Buckinghamshire Council. We establish what applies to your specific property during the home visit.

For most Burnham properties outside the conservation area boundary, like-for-like replacement falls under permitted development rights and doesn't require a planning application. Within the conservation area, the same generally applies provided the new windows are of a similar appearance to the existing ones. For the small number of listed buildings in Burnham — including properties associated with the historic core — listed building consent is required for any alterations to windows or doors, regardless of whether the change is like-for-like. We check what applies to your property during the home visit.

For Victorian and Edwardian properties, a flush casement — where the sash sits flush with the outer face of the frame — typically reads better from the street than a standard casement. For homes with original vertical sliding windows, a uPVC vertical slider maintains the proportions of the original opening. Both options are available in a range of colours and finishes. We bring samples to every home visit so you can compare options in natural light against your actual property before committing.

Yes. Every window and door installation we complete is FENSA registered and certified to current building regulations. The documentation is handled automatically — you receive it, and it's what solicitors ask for when you come to sell your home. You don't need to chase it or arrange it yourself.

10 years as standard, covering frames and sealed glazing units. Combined with FENSA registration and our full public liability insurance, you're protected throughout the installation and long after it's complete.

Yes to both. Bi-fold doors are one of the most popular products we fit in Burnham — the extended semis and detached homes on the estates often have south or west-facing rear gardens that suit them well. Rooflights — flat-roof inserts and pitched roof lanterns — are particularly effective over rear extensions where a conventional window isn't an option. We visit, measure, and advise on both at a free, no-obligation home visit.
