How Double Glazing Companies Can Win More Local Customers (Without the Jargon)

This is a subtitle for your new post

Standing out as a double glazing company is about more than just installing windows – it’s about being the name people trust in your area. 


Here’s a set of straightforward, real-world tips for double glazing and home improvement businesses keen to win more local customers.

🌟 Showcase Your Local Projects


People want to see who’s already trusted you. Use your website and social media to post before-and-after photos from real jobs, mentioning the area or even the street (with your customer’s blessing). 


For example, “Installed new sash windows on Billericay High Street.” It’s a simple way to show you’re active and reliable in your community.


🗣️ Collect and Use Customer Reviews



After each project, ask for a review while the experience is fresh.

A quick text or email with a review link works wonders. Highlight these reviews on your site and on Google.


Up to 88% of homeowners often read reviews before making a decision, so recent, positive feedback could tip the balance in your favour.


If you want to make life even easier, the Customer Feedback Centre can gather reviews on autopilot.


It sends out review requests automatically, tracks responses, and helps you keep a steady flow of new testimonials coming in.


This means you can focus on your work, knowing your reputation is growing in the background.

🔍 Keep Your Google Business Profile Fresh


Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing people see.


Make sure your details are up to date, add new photos regularly, and reply to every review in a friendly, genuine way. It shows you’re responsive and care about your reputation.


💡 Offer Honest, Simple Advice

Many people are baffled by double glazing jargon.


Share short blog posts or tips that answer common questions in plain English, like “Do I need planning permission for new windows?” or “Is triple glazing worth it?”


This builds trust and positions you as approachable rather than pushy.


📞 Be Easy to Contact

Your phone number and email should be visible on every page.


Respond quickly, even if it’s just to say you’ve received their message. Fast, friendly replies can win jobs away from slower competitors.


🤝 Connect with Other Local Trades


Get to know builders, roofers, and estate agents in your area. A simple recommendation from a trusted local business can lead to new work, especially if you return the favour.


At the end of the day, people want to work with those they like and trust. Keep your approach down to earth and focused on helping, not just selling.
