More than a new frame

Make everyday life a little more comfortable.

Comfort at home

Modern frames and glazing can help reduce heat loss and draughts compared with tired, poorly performing windows. We’ll explain the performance of your chosen specification.

Details that matter

Choose opening positions, handles and locking options around how you use each room. Our survey checks the practical details before your windows are made.

Less upkeep

uPVC frames need no regular repainting. Simple cleaning and routine care of the moving parts help keep your windows looking good and working smoothly.

A few helpful answers

Your uPVC window questions

How much do replacement uPVC windows cost?

Your price depends on the number and size of windows, opening arrangements, frame range, colour, glass and the installation work needed. Send us your postcode, a few photographs and an approximate window count for an initial conversation. We will confirm the specification and fitting costs in your quotation.

What is the difference between casement, flush and sash windows?

A casement window opens on hinges. A flush casement is a style of casement where the opening sash sits level with the outer frame when closed. A vertical sliding sash has sections that slide up and down. The best choice depends on your home’s appearance and how you want the windows to open.

Can I have coloured windows with white frames inside?

Many uPVC ranges offer a coloured or woodgrain exterior with a white interior. Available combinations depend on the system and finish. We can show you samples and confirm the options for your chosen window range.

Can I see the windows before ordering?

Yes. Visit Spectrum Glazing at 18 High Street, Brightlingsea, Colchester, Essex, CO7 0AE. Book an appointment to discuss your project, compare samples and see the window displays with our team.

We are extremely happy with our new windows. We’ve had lots of comments from friends and neighbours on how lovely the windows look. They gave the house a complete makeover. Richard and team are very professional and went the extra mile to help us resolve our issues. Thank you! We will be using this company again for the front porch and the remaining of the windows.

A big thank you to Richard and his team. We are very happy with our new windows and door. The whole experience was great from start to finish (stress free.) The two fitters Phil and Paul were great guys great at their job. SPECTRUM GLAZING GREAT COMPANY. HIGHLY RECOMMEND 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
We had two replacement windows with Spectrum. Both the ordering and fitting were simple and efficient. It took 4 weeks from ordering to fitting. The team that fitted the windows were friendly but professional. We would recommend this company.

Richard and the team were wonderful with our tricky small extension/garden room. We had 3 different building companies tell us we had no options to extend. Richard was solutions focused and listened carefully to understand what we wanted to achieve. He used reputable and high quality subcontractors for parts of the build and we are thrilled with the results. While we've only gained an extra 15m2 on our downstairs, it's completely transformed how we use the space as a family and means we can finally entertain.

We couldn’t be happier with the service from Spectrum Glazing. Rich was really great in helping us achieve exactly the look we were going for and the fitters, Phil & Mark were great from start to finish, working skillfully throughout the day (and in the pouring rain!) they left the house clean, having used dust sheets everywhere and vacuumed once the job was done. The new windows look fantastic and the finish is impeccable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a stress-free experience.

We are very happy with our new doors. Everything was smooth and easy, with great communication throughout the process, and the installation only took a few hours. They also cleaned up and took away the old doors, which was nice and one less thing to worry about. Would definitely recommend this local business!

Absolutely chuffed with our new front door from Spectrum. It has made such a huge difference to our entrance way, and no draft at all on the inside. The whole process was smooth and easy and the new door was installed within 6 weeks of ordering, even with the Christmas period. Such good value for money as well with the quality and experience. Would highly recommend.

Spectrum recently replaced all the windows in my house and built a Hup extension to the property. They have been entirely excellent throughout, with all work carried out on schedule, on budget and to an excellent standard. I would definitely use them again, and have no hesitation in giving them my strongest recommendation.

Firstly, I cannot praise Spectrum Glazing Limited enough for the quality and attention to detail of the fitters tasked with our installation. They went above and beyond my expectations. They were polite, tidy and efficient and did the perfect job. The product as you can see from the images, look amazing and really enhance our kitchen. The door flow easily when opening and closing, the handles make this operation simple and the locking is also simple. The lead time for the product was also much shorter than other companies had quoted. I am very pleased with the doors and would recommend them and the service that I received. An excellent product, and a happy customer.
