We work with homeowners, developers and commercial clients across Hornchurch, offering a full range of glazing solutions – from sleek aluminium frames to low-maintenance UPVC systems. Based in nearby Dagenham, we’ve been serving Hornchurch and the surrounding areas for over four decades.
Replacing your windows is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make to a home. Improve thermal efficiency, reduce noise and refresh the look of your property from the outside in.
Hornchurch is a predominantly residential area with a strong mix of interwar semis, 1960s and 70s estates, and larger detached homes particularly towards the Emerson Park end of the borough. It’s the kind of area where uPVC has historically been the default choice, but we’re increasingly fitting aluminium here as homeowners upgrade and extend.
DDG Windows offers a wide range of frame materials and styles to suit every type of property. Our team can guide you in choosing the perfect option for your home, balancing style, performance and budget.
Slim profiles, excellent strength and a broad choice of RAL colours. Aluminium windows are the go-to for homeowners who want a premium finish that lasts. Available in casement, bay, picture, tilt & turn, shaped, and gable frames.
The larger detached homes around Emerson Park and the more substantial semis on roads off Hornchurch Road are well suited to aluminium windows – the slim profiles and wide colour choice work particularly well on properties where the original windows were steel-framed.
A practical, cost-effective choice that doesn’t compromise on performance. Available in a wide range of styles, colours and finishes – from square and rectangular to arched and circular frames – with each and every window can be tailored to your exact measurements.
uPVC is still the most popular choice across Hornchurch’s large interwar and post-war estate properties, and with good reason – it performs well, requires minimal upkeep, and represents strong value. Our range covers everything from classic white casements to modern coloured finishes.
Our heritage windows capture the look of traditional steel designs using modern materials by delivering the same timeless aesthetic with far better thermal performance and security.
For the older properties in and around Hornchurch village itself, and any homes with original Crittall-style frames, our heritage window range delivers the same period aesthetic using modern materials – without the rust, draughts or condensation that comes with original steel.

All our windows & doors are built in our Dagenham manufacturing site
Doors in Hornchurch take a lot of wear – whether it’s a busy family home on one of the area’s larger estates or a more formal entrance on a detached property in Emerson Park.
We supply and fit a full range of doors across Hornchurch, with guidance at every step to make sure you get the right product for your home and budget.
High-performance, built to last, and exceptional security. Available in a wide range of RAL colours and configurations – from bi-folds to front entrance doors – and made to order for a precise fit.
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors are increasingly popular on Hornchurch’s extended semis and detached homes, where kitchen and garden room projects are opening up rear elevations. Our Dagenham site means short lead times and installation teams who know the local area.
A reliable, low-maintenance option that performs well on both security and insulation. Available in a range of styles, finishes, and colours to suit all property types.
The go-to choice across Hornchurch’s substantial interwar housing stock – available in a wide range of panel styles and finishes, and competitively priced with fast turnaround from our nearby Dagenham manufacturing site.
Our GRP composite doors offer the look of a solid timber door without the warping, swelling or repainting that comes with real wood. The outer skin is moulded from glass reinforced plastic, giving it exceptional durability and a finish that holds its colour and texture year after year.
A popular upgrade across Hornchurch, where a lot of the housing stock still has original or early replacement doors that are well overdue for an update. The composite range delivers an immediate improvement to kerb appeal with none of the maintenance of real timber.
A roof lantern is one of the most effective ways to flood a kitchen extension or garden room with natural light. DDG Windows supplies and installs aluminium roof lanterns across Hornchurch, available in a variety of sizes and glazing options to suit your project and budget.
Our roof lanterns are thermally broken as standard, keeping heat in during winter and reducing solar glare in summer - meaning your new space is comfortable year-round.
Our team regularly carries out installations across Hornchurch and the surrounding areas, including Emerson Park, Upminster, Rainham, Elm Park, Romford, Gidea Park, Harold Wood and the wider RM11 and RM12 postcodes.

Our Dagenham manufacturing site is just a few miles from Hornchurch, and we’ve been working across this part of Essex for over 40 years.

Hornchurch doesn’t have the same concentration of conservation area restrictions as some neighbouring areas, but there are still planning considerations worth flagging for older properties in the village itself and on certain protected streets.

Typically within 48 hours of your enquiry or site visit. Our Dagenham manufacturing base is just a few miles from Hornchurch, which means we can arrange surveys promptly and keep the whole process moving quickly.
It depends on the scope of the job, but our two-man teams typically fit three to six windows per day. We'll give you a clear timeline after the site survey.
We'll confirm your style choices, glass spec, opening configurations and colour options, then put everything into a formal order. A deposit is required and a site survey will be booked so we can take accurate measurements before manufacturing begins at our Dagenham facility.
Yes - every window, door and roof lantern we fit in Hornchurch is installed by our own trained and accredited team. We never use subcontractors, so the quality is consistent on every job regardless of size.
It depends on your priorities and budget. uPVC is the most cost-effective option and performs very well on interwar semis - particularly in a flush casement or traditional ovolo bead style that suits the period. If you're after a more premium finish or the property has original steel Crittall-style frames, our aluminium or heritage ranges are worth considering. We'd always recommend a site visit before advising definitively, as the character of the property and street both play a part.
Yes, regularly. Kitchen and garden room extensions are common across Hornchurch's detached and semi-detached housing stock, and roof lanterns are one of the most popular additions we fit in the area. Everything is made to measure at our Dagenham site, so we can accommodate any size or configuration your project requires.
