We built BeaconUpgrades to make one thing simple: knowing what a glazing job should cost, before you commit to anything or speak to a single salesperson.

If you've ever tried to price up new windows or a front door, you know the routine: book a showroom visit, wait days for someone to come round, sit through a long pitch, and finally get a number β with no easy way to tell whether it's fair. It's slow, it's opaque, and it often comes with pressure you didn't ask for.
We thought that was backwards. You should be able to get a sensible idea of the cost first β in seconds, from your sofa β and only speak to an installer once you've decided you actually want a quote. That's the whole idea behind BeaconUpgrades.
Snap your window or door, add your postcode, and our intelligent tool assesses it.
You get an indicative cost, the likely issue and energy impact β in writing, instantly.
Only if you choose to, we pass your details to one trusted local installer for a free quote.
You see an indicative price before anyone has your number. No mystery, no obligation.
We only work with established, accredited installers (FENSA/CERTASS where applicable) who cover your area.
You're never bombarded. Your enquiry goes to one local installer, not a dozen chasing you.
We pass your details to that one installer so they can quote β and never sell them or add you to marketing lists.
BeaconUpgrades isn't an installer β we don't fit windows or doors ourselves. What we do is connect you with a trusted local installer who does, and who covers your part of the country.
Rather than blasting your enquiry to as many companies as possible, we route it to a single vetted installer for your area. That means you get a genuine quote from someone local and accountable β not five competing firms calling you at dinner. We choose installers on the things that actually matter: proper accreditation, real local presence, and a track record of looking after customers.
We're a young, focused service, and we'd rather do one thing genuinely well than spread ourselves thin. Right now that means covering windows, doors and bifolds across Greater Manchester β from the city centre out to Stockport, Sale, Bury, Bolton and beyond β with verandas and pergolas, and new areas, on the way.
Our promise is simple: give you a fast, honest sense of the cost, connect you with someone good and local, and stay out of the way after that. You handle the decision; we just make the start of it easier.
No β BeaconUpgrades is a matchmaking service. We give you an instant estimate and connect you with a trusted local installer who carries out the work.
Yes. The estimate is free, there's no sign-up, and there's no obligation to take a quote. You only hear from an installer if you ask to.
If you request a quote, we pass your details to one trusted local installer so they can quote. We don't sell your data or use it for marketing.
It's an informed guide, not a fixed quote. The intelligent tool assesses what it can see and gives an indicative range; the installer confirms the exact price with a free survey.
