Sign Windows in Oadby
Oadby is a suburb where looks matter. Many streets are lined with roomy 1930s detached and semi-detached houses, a lot of them with bay fronts and leaded top lights that owners want to keep while getting rid of draughts and condensation. Kerb appeal counts here, so a new front door and windows that suit the age of the house make a real difference.
Sign Windows is a family run company that has spent nearly 40 years serving Leicestershire and the East Midlands. We make uPVC windows, including flush casements, in our own Leicester factory, and we supply and fit composite doors fitted with Ultion 11-pin locks. We also install aluminium windows and bifolds, patio doors, conservatories and roofline. Our factory and showroom on Saffron Lane is only about 2 miles away, so you can come in and see frames and colours for yourself. We are FENSA approved, our own installers fit every job, and a home visit is where it starts.

Homes in Oadby
For Oadby’s 1930s semis and detached houses, a flush casement or a classic casement with leaded or Georgian bars keeps the period look while the new glazing keeps the heat in. Bay windows are surveyed carefully and made as a matched set, so the sections line up. Woodgrain foils and heritage colours work well on the older houses around the town centre, while later homes can carry a clean white or grey frame. A composite front door in a traditional panel design, with a small glazed section and a colour chosen to sit with the brickwork, finishes the front nicely. At the back, French doors or aluminium bifolds open up the garden.
Windows and doors in Oadby: your questions answered
Do you cover Oadby?
Yes. Oadby is about 2 miles from our Saffron Lane factory and on the same side of Leicester, so it is one of the closest areas we serve. We visit at a time that suits you, measure everything ourselves and fit with our own installers. Call 0116 283 1010 to book a survey or to arrange a visit to the showroom.
Which conservation areas are there in Oadby?
Oadby and Wigston Borough Council has several in Oadby, including London Road and Saint Peters, Oadby Court, and Oadby Hill Top and Meadowcourt. Like-for-like window replacement is usually allowed on a house, but conservation areas and listed buildings can carry extra controls. Check your address with the council before ordering, and we can then suggest a style that fits the street.
Can I keep my leaded lights with new double glazing?
Yes. We can build leaded or Georgian-style bars into new A-rated casement windows, so the house keeps the pattern that gives it character. You lose the rattles and cold spots of old single glazing but the front still reads as a 1930s home. Bay windows and odd-shaped openings are measured on site so each frame fits properly.
Can I replace windows in an Oadby flat or maisonette?
Often you can, but flats and maisonettes do not have the same permitted development rights as houses. Read your lease first, as the freeholder or managing agent may need to agree. If you want a different look from the existing windows, ask Oadby and Wigston Borough Council whether planning permission is needed. After that, we can survey and quote.
