Henley-on-Thames is one of the most recognisable towns in the Thames Valley, known the world over for the Royal Regatta and its stunning riverside setting. The town centre, with its handsome Georgian and Victorian facades lining Hart Street and Bell Street, sits within a designated conservation area where any changes to windows and doors require careful thought. Beyond the centre, Henley offers a varied mix of properties, from period town houses and Edwardian villas to substantial family homes in sought-after surrounding villages such as Shiplake, Nettlebed and Rotherfield Greys. Whether you are replacing draughty timber sashes in a heritage property or adding contemporary aluminium bifold doors to a rear extension, choosing the right installer matters. Vitrum Solutions brings proven expertise in both traditional and modern glazing to homeowners across Henley and the surrounding Oxfordshire and Berkshire countryside.

Why Henley Homeowners Choose Vitrum
- Riverside and period property expertise — We understand the particular challenges of glazing in Henley, from properties that face increased moisture exposure near the Thames to town-centre homes where proportions and materials need to sit sympathetically alongside their neighbours. Our surveyors assess each property individually and recommend the right product for its setting.
- Conservation area compliance — Henley’s town centre conservation area means that replacement windows and doors often need to respect the existing character of the streetscape. We have experience specifying products, such as uPVC sliding sash windows with authentic-looking astragal bars, that satisfy planning considerations while delivering modern thermal and acoustic performance.
- Premium brands you can trust — We are selective about the products we offer. Cortizo aluminium systems and REHAU uPVC profiles are proven performers backed by rigorous testing. Palladio and Gerda entrance doors are among the finest available in the UK market. This means you receive products that look exceptional, perform reliably and last for decades.
- Comprehensive guarantees and aftercare — Every installation is covered by a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, with aluminium products guaranteed for up to 25 years. We are FENSA registered, so your installation is automatically notified to local authority building control. And because we are a local company, we are always on hand if you need us after the work is complete.

— Mr and Mrs T., Shiplake, near Henley-on-Thames
