About ShopFront Installers

The trade outfit behind the work — not a sales office that hires the install out

Home/About
Our Story

Started on the tools, still on the tools

ShopFront Installers is the installation arm of S&K Glazing Limited (Companies House registration 14088194) — a family-run West Midlands business that started in 1999 with a single van and a reputation for finishing what we started. S&K Glazing Limited is part of the wider S&K Group Holdings Limited family.

We grew the way trades businesses are supposed to grow: one good job leading to the next, hiring the apprentices and keeping them, buying the workshop rather than renting, training installers up to lead estimators rather than poaching from competitors.

By the time we crossed our 3,000th install we'd developed a stubborn principle: we don't subcontract installs. If our name's on the quote, our team does the work. Period.

That principle costs us margin. It limits how fast we can scale. But it's also why our customers come back — and why our installers stay. Most of our senior fitters have been with us 10+ years.

What we believe

Five principles we won't compromise on

01
Employed Fitters
Every installer is PAYE-employed by S&K Glazing Limited. No CIS-subcontractors, no labour-only agency staff on our jobs.
02
Fixed Pricing
Itemised quote, no hidden extras, no day-rate creep when something unexpected appears.
03
In-House Workshop
Frames cut and assembled in our Smethwick fabrication unit. Quality controlled before site.
04
Snags Closed Out
We don't issue final invoices until a written snag list is signed off. Pencil and paper, on site.
05
One Phone Number
Same number, same team, year five and year ten. We pick up. We turn up. We put it right.
