Environmental
At KJM we take our responsibility to the environment very seriously. We will always work within the guidelines of good environmental practice.
We aim to create sustainable products and a buying and installation system that ensures that little to no waste is produced, therefore aiding in reducing our carbon footprint and impact on the environment.
Our Sustainability Aims
- Using materials from sustainable sources wherever possible
- Reduce unnecessary use of energy and materials

With KJM Group making a pledge to offer sustainable products and services, this allows for you to also have a positive impact on the planet. Choose KJM Group for your home improvement products, and make the eco-friendly choice.
Many of our home improvement products also help protect the environment by reducing your energy bills. By installing energy efficient products such as composite doors from Solidor and Comp Door, uPVC windows and doors or aluminium doors and windows, you can benefit from high quality weatherproofing, which in turn ensures your home will not suffer in adverse conditions or become damaged, which aids in making your home draughty or damp. uPVC and aluminium are ideal materials for energy and thermal efficiency and are sustainable, so they will not need replacing as often as traditional timber.
Recycled uPVC Waste
The uPVC windows and doors we offer are 100% recyclable, and any uPVC we remove from your home when replacing your windows and doors are also recycled, so no waste is sent to landfills.
All Metals Recycled
Any metal products we install or remove during the installation process are also recycled, so you can be sure that we are doing our part by sending no waste to landfill sites.
Planned Sustainable Measures
We also have been in discussion within the business as to how we can make all glass that we remove recyclable. As an industry-wide issue, the team at KJM Group is aiming to take the first steps to ensure that all of our products are recycled.
Energy Saving Lighting
Our KJM Group office is now being lit by energy-saving LED bulbs, which are reducing our carbon footprint and environmental impact.
Zero to Landfill Aim
We are currently working towards a Zero to Landfill approach for our products and installations, therefore ensuring that all products removed during installations can be reused and recycled.
Sustainability with our Partners
Here at KJM Group, we partner with various manufacturers and suppliers who also share our sustainability values. Smarts are a great example of one of our partners who offer a sustainability promise when you work with them. Not only have they considered their relocation and expansion of more branches being in areas where natural wildlife habitats will not be affected, but they have also considered the effect their branch would have on local communities in the area. They also attain 5 BSI standards, gain their energy from renewable energy sources and aim to be carbon neutral in their production operations.
Our Sustainable Products
It is also important to note that all of the products we offer at this time are sustainably sourced. We aim to ensure that any parts of your renovation that can be recycled will be recycled when you choose KJM Group. We strive to send little to no waste to landfills.
Our products also help us keep our sustainability promise. Once they are installed, they perform to the necessary standards of energy and thermal levels and are not likely to become damaged by adverse weather conditions. This makes them a great option for homeowners looking to stop all draughts and damp in their homes and reduce their energy bills.
If you are looking for new windows and doors or to invest in a new conservatory for your home but are looking to make a smaller impact on the environment around you whilst also benefiting from improved performance, choose KJM Group as your local home improvement installer. You can contact us to learn more about our sustainability promise, as well as for more information on the products we offer and a quote for your home improvement project.
Chosen on recommendation and they didn’t disappoint. A local company with excellent values and a personal service. From the initial visit and assessment with Charles to the fitting by Paul and Lennon, the service was excellent. People that know what they are doing and go the extra mile to look after your home as if it was their own.
The products are top quality and we couldn’t be happier with the finish. On completion Simon was on hand to listen to our feedback and take on board our reflection of our experience. Thank you all, we would 100% recommend you.

What can I say. From start to finish these guys have been absolutely amazing. From the quote, measuring, pre-work through to installing the new windows & doors, everyone has been great.
Josh, Jordan & Shay who did the installation were fabulous. Incredibly hardworking, polite, friendly, and tidy. Can’t recommend them enough. Thank you KJM for a stress free week.

I’ve used KJM for a few replacement and new windows/doors over the years. Their service has always been great, particularly any after sales/maintenance required. I’ve recently had a replacement window fitted and I was blown away at the professionalism of the fitters.
Charlie, Ryan and Peter were so polite, considerate and tidy throughout the fitting. The first thing they did was put down floor protection and dust sheets from the entrance to where the window was being fitted, the last thing they did was sweep the area outside where they were working. I dare say the area was tidier after they left than it was beforehand! They truly are a credit to the company and are more than I could hope for from a local business.

Had a great team today fitting new conservatory doors as well as a new front door. Lesley and Liam, a father and son partnership did an amazing job.
Firstly the conservatory doors look amazing, they are new doors fitted to a 28 year old conservatory! The result is outstanding, so a big shout out to KJM, Lexter & Liam.
The front door looks classy, a great new addition to the house.
We are so pleased with the result and would highly recommend KJM, and if you are lucky enough to get Lester & Liam you are in safe hands.
A very satisfied customer!😊
