To receive your no-obligation quote, you can call Anglian or fill out an online form. You will be offered an in-home or virtual tour and a local design expert will walk you through the various options Anglian has to offer and provide you with a free quote. A technical expert will come to your home to measure your windows while thoroughly reviewing your order's design specifications. Your windows are made to measure in state of the art factories in the UK. Once the windows are ready, the Anglic team comes and installs them at will.
According to Trustpilot reviews, the installation process for Anglican windows can start as few months after the first survey.
Anglian double glazed windows compared to the competition
Not all window suppliers cover the whole of the UK, but Anglian does. You will also find that Anglian has showrooms across the UK which are regionally based. In showrooms, regional experts can help explain the installation process, as well as inform you about design and layout options.
Anglian doesn't offer the best prices on the market; For example, Britelite's PVC windows range from £160 to £450 per window, which is a fairer price than Anglian, which starts at £250.
It's also important to consider your Windows vendor's warranty when choosing the right Windows installer for you.
Everest has one of the best warranties on the market, offering 10-year, 20-year, or lifetime transferrable warranties on their products. It is also worth noting that double glazed windows have an average lifespan of 20 years so Anglian's warranty may not cover the life of your windows.
That being said, Anglian is one of the best window manufacturers on the market for its wide range of style and material options; Most of their competitors don't offer this. Anglian offers uPVC in wood and aluminum finishes, decorative glass and high-end security features such as deadbolt locks, key pulls, bypass devices and multipoint locks.
How much do double glazed windows cost in Anglia?
Not all window frames cost the same, and not just Anglican windows. In general, PVC window frames are the cheapest option and wood is the most expensive option.
In order to provide an accurate quote, Anglian must personally measure your windows. However, online comparison sites suggest that you can expect the following prices per 60cm x 90cm window.
| Material | Cost per window (excluding labor costs) |
|---|---|
| uPVC | £250–£570 |
| Aluminium | £500–£605 |
| Madera | £845–£910 |
Despite this, Anglian offers a price match for PVC windows. If you find a lower price for your windows from another supplier, Anglian will match it. To do this, various offers and surveys must be obtained from other window suppliers in order to find the best price.
What the experts say
Anglian is often praised for the quality of its double glazed windows. (Image credit: English)
“Anglian is accredited by the Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme and the Glass and Glazing Federation, which means Anglian installers can self-certify that double glazing meets building regulations. This saves you having to contact the building inspector in your municipality.”—Which
“Anglian offer a PVC window price match system, which means that if you find a lower price for your doors and windows from another installer, they will match the price. This can be very convenient, but it means getting an inspection or survey from multiple companies to get the best price.”—ExpertInsurance
“Anglian covers the whole of the UK, unlike some providers who only cover England and parts of Wales. However, what is unique about Anglian is that you can find Anglian showrooms across the UK, all of which are regionally based. Not only do they have literally hundreds of showrooms and branches across the UK, but they also have local experts in each of them so you can always contact them by phone or email for more information rather than being routed to a national call centre ."—Experts in double glazing

The guys who came in for the installation, Wayne and Dalton, were absolutely amazing. They were very professional and very nice. You did an incredible job and my husband and I are very happy with the result. Good quality product tuned to a high standard. I would highly recommend Wayne and Dalton and would definitely use them in the future. You are an honor for Anglian Home Improvements.”– Helen abouttrusted pilot
our recommendation
Anglian has decades of experience and offers a 10 to 15 year guarantee on its windows, giving customers peace of mind about the quality of the company's products. In addition to a variety of styles and design options, the ability to customize your windows to match your home is very appealing.
Anglian also offers payment plans and while they are not interest free this may still suit some customers' needs. However, Anglian isn't the most profitable company out there. For this reason, it is always recommended to find, request and compare offers from at least three companies.
