Celebrating 35 Years of Coral Windows & Conservatories

This month, we at Coral Windows & Conservatories are celebrating something truly special: 35 years of enhancing homes across Yorkshire and beyond.

Since 1990, we’ve grown from a small family-run business in Bradford into one of the region’s most trusted names in home improvement. And we couldn’t have done it without you, our loyal customers, our hardworking team, and the communities that have supported us along the way.

“As we approach 35 years in business, I can’t help but feel incredibly proud of how far Coral Windows has come. From our humble beginnings to becoming one of Yorkshire’s most trusted home improvement companies, it’s been an amazing journey. What’s kept us strong all these years is our commitment to quality, honesty, and putting customers first — values that will continue to guide us for the next 35 years and beyond.”

John Valente, Owner of Coral Windows.

35th anniversary

Join Our 35th Anniversary Celebration

To mark this incredible milestone, we’re hosting a special celebration event across our Bradford, Otley, and Sheffield showrooms on Saturday 15th November from 11am to 3pm. We’d love you to join us for exclusive offers, fantastic prizes, and a few exciting surprises.

As part of the celebrations, we’re also offering a special 35% off* throughout November, our way of saying thank you for 35 wonderful years.

Our Story: From Perseverance Mill to a Yorkshire Household Name

Our journey began back in 1990, when our founder, John Valente, established Coral Windows at Perseverance Mill in Wibsey, Bradford. Just two years later, we moved to our long-term home on Halifax Road, the same place where our head office still stands today.

From those early days, our vision was simple: to craft high quality windows, doors, and conservatories that homeowners could rely on, all while offering genuine service without any hard-sell tactics. Over the years, that dedication has helped us grow into one of Yorkshire’s most respected home improvement specialists.

Putting You – Our Customer – at the Heart of What We Do

At Coral, everything we do starts with you. We’ve always believed that home improvements should be stress-free, honest, and enjoyable. That’s why we’re committed to listening to your needs, offering personalised advice, and ensuring you find the perfect products for your home, without pressure.

This customer-first approach has been key to our success, and it remains at the heart of everything we do 35 years later.

If you have any questions, require further information, or would like to get started on your home improvement project, get in touch with our expert team through our online contact form or over the phone at 0800 699 955.

Quality You Can Trust

We’re proud that our commitment to quality and service has been recognised time and again. Over the years, we’ve earned several industry accreditations and awards, including a Gold Service Award from Feefo, over 15 years of recognition from the Consumer Protection Association (CPA), and top rankings in Which? Magazine’s surveys for double glazing installers in Yorkshire.

We have also been recognised by The Independent magazine as one of the best double glazing companies in 2025, which you can find out more about here.

These honours reflect something simple but important: our customers trust us, and we work hard every day to keep that trust.

As we celebrate 35 years in business, we want to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has been part of our story: our customers, our team, and our community.

  • ​Steve Holdsworth embarked on his journey in the glazing industry in 1978 as an apprentice glazier within a three-person team. Demonstrating dedication and skill, he quickly advanced to lead his own team, focusing on aluminium and timber installations, as well as sealed unit replacements—a period when UPVC was still emerging in the U.K. In 1980, Steve briefly shifted to manufacturing sealed units but returned to his passion for window and door fitting in 1981. Over the next 13 years, he honed his expertise, adapting seamlessly as UPVC became the industry standard.​ Steve joined Coral Windows in 1994, expanding his repertoire to include conservatory installations alongside windows and doors. In 2005, Steve joined a fabrication facility in Freeport, Grand Bahama Island, where he dedicated 15 months, training local workers who were accustomed to aluminium on the nuances of UPVC window and door installations.​ Upon returning to the UK in 2006, Steve returned to Coral windows and assumed the role of Conservatory Manager, a position he held for six years before being promoted to Head of Installations in 2012. In 2015, after recovering from a stroke, Steve resumed his role as Conservatory Manager, a testament to his resilience and commitment to the company.​ Steve has a passion for music, mainly creating new songs via various apps, he has had 5 songs played on the radio in the U.K. Reflecting on his 47-year career, Steve remarks on the swift passage of time and the continuous advancements in the glazing industry, emphasising that every day remains an opportunity for learning.
