Sign Windows in Whitwick
Sign Windows is a family run company that has served Leicestershire and the East Midlands for nearly 40 years. Our factory and showroom are on Saffron Lane in Leicester, and our own installers fit windows and doors across Whitwick, on the western edge of Charnwood Forest next to Coalville.
Whitwick’s homes tell the story of its mining years. Stone and brick cottages sit near St John the Baptist’s church, Victorian and Edwardian terraces followed the collieries, and inter-war semis, post-war houses and newer estates stretch towards Coalville. Many of these homes are now on their second or third set of windows, and owners usually want to stop draughts, replace misted glass or swap a front door that has swollen and sticks. We make uPVC windows in our Leicester factory, supply and fit composite doors, and install French and patio doors, conservatories, solid roofs and roofline. We call round, survey each opening and explain the options simply. We are FENSA approved, so we self-certify the work and give you the certificate. Ring 0116 283 1010 to arrange a visit.

Homes in Whitwick
The old cottages and terraces in Whitwick look their best with flush casements or sash-style windows in a woodgrain or heritage colour. Keeping the frames slim lets the stone and brickwork stay the main feature. Inter-war and post-war semis suit a classic casement, with a Georgian bar detail if you want a nod to the original windows, plus a composite front door fitted with an Ultion 11-pin lock. Newer homes towards Coalville mostly need warm, low-maintenance A-rated frames that match the rest of the street. For the back of the house, French doors, aluminium bifolds or a conservatory are popular ways to bring in more light.
Windows and doors in Whitwick: your questions answered
Are there extra rules for older houses in Whitwick?
There can be. Whitwick's older centre has a number of listed buildings, and a listed home needs listed building consent before windows or doors change. Conservation controls can also apply in some streets. For most houses, like for like replacement is usually permitted development. North West Leicestershire District Council can confirm the position for your address, and we can then match the style you need.
I live in a flat in Whitwick. Can I change the windows?
Flats and maisonettes do not have the permitted development rights that houses have, so you may need planning permission from North West Leicestershire District Council even for a matching replacement. Check your lease as well, because the windows often belong to the building and the freeholder or managing agent must agree. Once that is in place we can survey, quote and fit, with a FENSA certificate.
Which products suit homes in Whitwick?
Cottages and terraces suit flush casements or sash-style windows in heritage shades. Semis and newer houses suit A-rated uPVC casements and a composite front door. If your conservatory is too cold to use for half the year, swapping its polycarbonate roof for a solid tiled roof is a common fix. We can look at windows, doors and the conservatory in one visit.
Do you cover Whitwick?
Yes. Whitwick is about 13 miles from our Saffron Lane factory, and our own installation team works across north west Leicestershire. We offer home visits and surveys, and you are welcome to visit the showroom first to see the frames, door styles and colour options together. Call 0116 283 1010 and we will set up a time that suits you.
