Meet the team

 

For over 18 years Yorkshire Glass Solutions
has worked with the leading names in the building industry
to manufacture and supply high performance
timber and aluclad windows and composite doors.

Established in 2003, Yorkshire Glass Solutions was first setup by Graeme Dolan and Dennis Holmes.
Having spent 70+ years in the industry at a Board and Senior Management level, working with both large
and small organisations in the construction industry, they saw an opportunity to offer a more personal and
tailored service experience for their clients. One that took a truly partnership and solutions led approach.

Now with offices in both Wetherby and Leeds city centre, the team have grown from strength the strength,
described by many of their clients as their ‘partner of choice’ in glazing solutions.
