For 180 years The Norman & Underwood Group Head Office was based on the same city centre site where, in 1825, cousins Thomas Norman and John Underwood began their General Plumbing and Glazing business. However in 2005 the Group's Head Office and its Leicester based activities were forced to relocate to a new site approximately 3 miles to the West. Today the Group consists of around 230 people in two locations, specialising in areas such as glass products (including sealed units), glass restoration, structural glazing systems, metal roof contracting, architectural leadwork and stained glass, resulting in an extensive repertoire of experience and design.

The Group's skills and craftsmanship have come to be recognised not only in the United Kingdom but also internationally through involvement with a variety of major and prestigious projects.

Whilst adopting new technology and processes, Norman & Underwood still maintain its old valued traditions, which are reflected in the quality of their work. It is a prime objective for Norman & Underwood to offer customer service and quality that are second to none, but at highly competitive prices.

The Group's activities are structured into two operating divisions:
• Glass Products Division, based at both Kings Lynn and Leicester
• Contracts Division, based at Leicester, incorporating:
• Structural Glazing Systems
• General Glazing including Emergency & Replacement
• Stained Glass
• Roofing - cast lead, copper, zinc and stainless steel

All divisions can be accessed by the navigation panel on the left.
