title NEW YORK, PARIS and NEWBURY !

A new Window Installers Warehouse (WIW) branch has recently opened in Newbury, Berkshire.
Part of the growing national network of WIW trade counters, the Newbury branch is owned and
managed by Bob Meikle. Bob has over 30 years experience in the industry having originally trained
as a fitter before starting his own business called 'Just Doors and Windows', supplying and fitting
PVC windows, doors and conservatories predominantly to the domestic market but also
to the commercial sector..

The WIW network
of independent, owner -
managed trade counters was
launched by Advantage
Windows & Conservatories in
January 2006. The Cheshire -
based trade fabricator is the
UK's largest manufacturer
of Rehau 70 frames and
K2 conservatory roofs.
Together with its supplier
partners, it offers a full range
of products to supply all the
needs of a busy trade counter.

Bob Meikle believes that his
new WIW trade counter
provides the perfect link to
combine his domestic and
trade business. He says:
"I have built up my business
providing a good local service
offering repairs, maintenance
and installation.

outside the new WIW Newbury premises.

My new WIW trade counter is ideally situated on a busy industrial estate in Newbury and is effectively
a one - stop - shop supplying everything from frames to trims, tools, sealants and fixings.
We encourage both the trade and public to call in and business has been growing steadily."

Plans are advanced for Bob to purchase a local glass company that will further add to his portfolio
of products and strengthen his position as the No 1 window company in Newbury.

Perhaps the most striking and amusing sight visitors see when they visit the company is the two
'Del Boy' style Reliant Robin's parked on the forecourt. Sign written in the company's logo, they attract
lots of attention outside the premises and when being driven around town.
Danny Hague, Advantage's Group Commercial Director called in to see the new trade counter.
He said: "Newbury is a very busy town and with Bob Meikle's enthusiasm and experience I expect
WIW Newbury to be one of our finest branches."
