5 Essential Questions to Ask Your Replacement Window and Door Company Before You Buy

Essential Questions to Ask A Replacement Window and Door Company Before You Buy

Choosing a reputable company for your replacement windows and doors doesn’t have to be tricky.

Armed with the right questions, it’s not difficult to find a quality installer with the skills and experience required to give you the peace of mind you’re looking for.

Here are five questions you should consider asking BEFORE you commit to making a purchase.

1. Ask how long the company has been established

Generally speaking, the longer the company has been around the better. Brackenwood has been around for over 20 years - since 1987 in fact - which means that we’ve built up a wealth of experience in carrying out first class installations to your home.

2. Ask if the company is registered with FENSA (England & Wales only)

FENSA stands for ‘the Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme’ and was set up by the Glass and Glazing Federation to ensure that replacement glazing is carried out to certain standards to satisfy the latest building regulations. Brackenwood is a FENSA registered business.

3. Ask about warranties

Many replacement window companies offer warranties of various descriptions and types. Brackenwood offers a range of fully comprehensive and extensive range of guarantees to endorse our range of quality products.

4. Ask about recommendations

A good supplier should be able to show you letters from satisfied customers and possibly a portfolio of previous installations carried out. As a Trust Mark Approved Partner, you can be confident that Brackenwood will carry out repairs, maintenance and improvement work inside and outside your home to a very high standard.

5. Ask about energy saving

It is now mandatory for windows (and recommended for conservatories) that energy saving glass is used. Brackenwood are at the forefront of new products and technologies such as Pilkington energiKare™ that dramatically improves energy efficiency in your home. These energy-saving replacement windows and doors are good for your pocket and good for the environment.

Brackenwood will be very happy to answer any of the above questions or any others that you may have.
