Sign Windows in Narborough
Narborough sits beside the River Soar south-west of Leicester, with its railway station and a village centre that grew up long before the estates around it. That history shows in the houses. Near the station and the old centre there are Victorian and Edwardian terraces and a few cottages. Further out, most streets are lined with post-war semis, bungalows and family homes from the 1960s to the 1980s, along with some newer builds.
A lot of those homes still have their first uPVC or tired timber frames. Fogged glass, cold draughts and locks that no longer turn smoothly are what usually get people in Narborough thinking about new windows and doors. We are Sign Windows, a family run firm with nearly 40 years serving Leicestershire. We make uPVC windows at our factory and showroom on Saffron Lane, and our own installers fit them. We also supply and fit composite doors, aluminium windows and doors, and conservatories. We are FENSA approved, so we self-certify the work and you get the certificate.

Homes in Narborough
The Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the station look right with a flush casement or a casement with slim glazing bars, which keeps the proportions of the original sashes and casements. A woodgrain foil can soften the look further on older brick fronts. The post-war semis and bungalows that make up most of the village suit a clean A-rated uPVC casement in white or a light grey, and a solid composite front door with an Ultion lock is a sensible upgrade on security. Newer homes on the edges usually just need frames that match what is already there. If your house backs onto a garden with room to spare, French doors, bifolds or a conservatory are worth a look too.
Windows and doors in Narborough: your questions answered
Do you cover Narborough?
Yes. Narborough is about 4 miles from our Saffron Lane factory, so it sits well inside the area our own installers cover. We can visit your home, measure every opening and talk through the options in person. You are also welcome to come to the showroom on Saffron Lane first to see the frames, glass and door styles before you decide anything.
My terrace is near the old village centre. Do I need permission for new windows?
Swapping windows like-for-like on a house is usually permitted development. Narborough has a conservation area around its older core, though, and some properties there are treated more carefully, especially on the front of the house. Listed homes need listed building consent. Check with Blaby District Council before you order, and choose a style such as a flush casement that keeps the original look.
I rent a flat near the station. Can I change the windows?
In most flats the windows belong to the building, not the individual flat, so look at your lease and get written consent from the freeholder or managing agent before anything is ordered. Flats and maisonettes can also have different planning rules from houses, so it is worth checking with Blaby District Council. Once you have the go-ahead, we can survey and quote.
Which products suit a 1970s Narborough semi best?
Most homeowners with a semi from that era go for A-rated uPVC casement windows, which are warmer and quieter than early double glazing and have Secured by Design twin cam locking. A composite front door with an Ultion 11-pin lock finishes the front well. At the back, a set of French doors or patio doors opens the garden up without a big building job.
