The borough changes character as the ground rises towards the North Downs, and so does the work.
In the north of the borough the streets are flat and the houses mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, close together, with front doors onto the pavement or a short path and a narrow kitchen behind the main house.
Addiscombe mixes Victorian streets with interwar semis. Shirley is largely interwar, and many of its houses carry a dated rear extension with a single door and a window beside it.
South of the town centre the houses climb the slopes of the North Downs. Detached houses sit above or below the road on steep plots, often with steps up to the front door.
The centre is a mix of tower blocks, converted office buildings and older houses close to the tram lines. Croydon Council has conservation areas across the borough, so check your road before changing a front elevation.
Lead times count from the day you order and depend on availability. We confirm yours with the quote.
A front door is often the first thing Croydon homeowners ask us about. We fit Smart Signature aluminium doors, built on door systems Smart has tested to PAS 24. On a hillside house in Purley or Kenley, reached up a flight of steps, a strong colour and a good handle set make the entrance read from the road.
4 to 6 weeks from order, depending on availability
More about front doorsThe interwar semis in Shirley and Addiscombe often have an older extension with a single door and a window beside it. Taking both out and fitting a bifold across the width is one of the most common changes we price in the borough.
About 10 working days from order, depending on availability
More about bifold doorsOur windows are Smart's Alitherm 400, in casement or tilt and turn. Tilt and turn is worth a look on upper floors and in the flats near the centre, because the sash opens inwards and you can clean the outside glass from the room.

More about windowsWhere a garden slopes away from the house, as it does on plenty of plots in the south of the borough, a sliding door keeps a wide pane of glass looking out over the view without panels folding into the room.
2 to 3 weeks from order, depending on availability
More about sliding doorsWe also fit aluminium heritage windows, French doors and roof lanterns, and take on new build and commercial work. See every product.
Croydon is a long way round the M25 from us, and we are honest about that: it is the edge of our patch, not the middle. We still take work here because the borough has the kind of houses our products suit: terraces that want a slim front door and better windows, semis with rear extensions ready for a wide bifold, and hillside houses where a large pane of glass makes the most of the view.
What the distance changes is how we schedule. A Croydon survey and a Croydon fit are each planned as a full day for the team, so nobody is rushing to get back across London.
In Thornton Heath, Selhurst and South Norwood the usual request is a front door with real presence and windows that are easier to open and clean, followed later by a sliding or bifold door when the kitchen is rebuilt. Bins, parked cars and tight passages all affect how we carry frames through, so we check access at the survey.
We aim to reply the same working day, Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm. Most quotes start with a WhatsApp message and a handful of photos.
Rough sizes, a few photos and the products you are thinking about.
We price from your measurements. Rather not measure? We come out and do it.
We measure every opening exactly before anything is ordered.
We give you a realistic date for your product.
Our team travels over from Hayes and installs it, with a 10-year installation guarantee.

We supply and fit aluminium windows and doors across Croydon, in CR0, CR2, CR7, CR8 and SE25. It is the south eastern edge of the area we cover, and we have fitted here.
We cover CR0, CR2, CR7, CR8 and SE25, including Addiscombe, Shirley, Thornton Heath, South Norwood, Purley, Sanderstead and Selsdon. If your postcode is just outside those, send it with your sizes and we will tell you straight away.
It is about an hour each way outside rush hour, so we book a Croydon survey and a Croydon fit as a full day each. If a job needs a second visit, we plan it the same way.
Steps are fine as long as you tell us at the start. Large glazed units are heavy, so we plan how they get from the van to the opening and send enough people to carry them safely.
Photos of our Croydon job are on the way. We have fitted in Croydon, and the photos and a short write-up of what we fitted will go on this page and on our projects page once we have them.
It depends on the size of each opening, the system, the colour, the glass and how easy the fit is. Send us sizes and photos and we will give you a rough quote, then confirm it after a survey.
We supply and fit, so one company handles the survey, the order and the installation. Supply only is available on request, but most Croydon customers choose supply and fit because the 10-year guarantee covers the installation.
