Essential Glazing Products is run by **Lloyd, Andrew, Tracy and Sophie** — a family carrying on three decades of glazing experience passed down from the father who spent thirty years fitting windows and doors across South Wales. From our Newbridge Road workshop in Pontllanfraith we help homeowners across Blackwood, Newport and the wider Gwent valleys replace tired windows and doors with made-to-measure uPVC, aluminium and composite units. Our specialist team also takes on commercial projects and aluminium structural curtain walling, and the same product ranges we install are stocked at our trade counter for local installers, builders and DIY customers. Every survey is done by a member of the family — Lloyd, Andrew, Tracy or Sophie — and every install is carried out by our own MTC-certified fitters, never subcontractors. That's the model, and it hasn't needed changing. Who we help Homeowners across Gwent and Newport, plus local trade counters and small builders. What we specialise in uPVC, aluminium and composite windows and doors — made to measure, installed to spec. Experience depth 30 years installing across South Wales — hundreds of properties, all conditions. Service area Blackwood, Newport, Caerphilly and every valley town in between. Standards & philosophy ## How we work — and what we won't compromise on. ### Made to measure, no shortcuts Every unit is surveyed, ordered and cut to the exact opening. No off-the-shelf frames, no packing gaps, no 'it'll do'. ### Our fitters, not agency labour Installations are carried out by our own team — every fitter is MTC-certified and known to the customer by name before install day. ### A quote that means what it says Itemised in 1–2 days. Valid 30 days. Honoured beyond that when supplier pricing hasn't moved. No add-ons on install day. ### 10-year product guarantee Written guarantee on uPVC, composite and aluminium products. 5-year cover on glass. Insurance-Backed Guarantee on every install. ### Fully insured, every job £1M public liability and full employers' liability in force for every property we work on — proof provided on request. ### A straight-talking survey If a job isn't right for you, we'll tell you. If a cheaper spec meets the brief, we'll quote for it. Pressure sells have no place here. The measurable stuff ## Numbers we're happy to be judged on. 30 yrs Family-run experience 4.9★ Across 32 Google reviews 1 week Typical survey booking window 10 yrs Product guarantee, in writing ### ASSURE Registered Our registration body — every install is compliant and independently backed. ### VEKA Approved Installer Certified to fit VEKA's premium uPVC systems to specification. ### MTC Certified Installers Every fitter on our team is Minimum Technical Competency certified. ### £1M Public Liability Full public liability insurance on every job, on every site. ### Employers' Liability Employers' liability in place for the entire team, always. ### Insurance-Backed Guarantee IBG cover on installations — your work stays protected even if we don't.
