Windows & Doors in West Drayton

West Drayton is a town in the south-west of the London Borough of Hillingdon, about 2 miles north of Heathrow Airport. It was an ancient Middlesex parish until it became part of Greater London in 1965. Yiewsley lies north of the Great Western Main Line and West Drayton to the south, and from 1929 the two were run together as the Yiewsley and West Drayton Urban District. The UB7 postcode covers the town, and West Drayton station has Elizabeth line services between Abbey Wood and Reading and Great Western Railway trains between Paddington and Didcot Parkway. St Martin's Church, first mentioned in the twelfth century and mostly fifteenth century in its present form, stands near The Green, the oldest part of the town. With the airport so close, aircraft noise is a real consideration, and window and door choices here often start with sound insulation as much as heat. Our Ickenham showroom and Uxbridge workshop are a few miles north, and every West Drayton installation is FENSA registered with a 10-year CPA insurance-backed guarantee, with free, no-obligation quotations.

Property Types in West Drayton

Most of West Drayton's housing dates from the middle of the twentieth century, built after the De Burgh family's estates were gradually sold off for building in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. That means streets of semi-detached and terraced family houses, many with first-generation double glazing that is now due for replacement, alongside post-war flats and later infill. The Green keeps a cluster of older houses and commercial buildings, and Drayton Hall, a seventeenth-century mansion that was the De Burgh family home, is now offices.

Popular Installations in West Drayton

An acoustic glass unit in Rehau TOTAL70 or Cortizo aluminium frames is the upgrade we recommend first in West Drayton, because it deals with aircraft and road noise as well as heat loss. Rear extensions take Cortizo or Schuco bifold and sliding doors and Korniche roof lanterns, and Palladio composite or SteelR RC4 steel doors are the usual front-door choices. Properties in the West Drayton Green Conservation Area are checked against the London Borough of Hillingdon's guidance before we quote. Cortizo, Schuco and Rehau units are fabricated at our Uxbridge workshop.
