Choices to weigh up in Kingswinford

Casement windows

The standard side-hung or top-hung window found in most UK homes. Casements are the simplest and cheapest to make, open wide for airing and cleaning, and can be set up as fire escape windows on upper floors. They come in white, colours and woodgrain finishes, with chamfered or sculptured frame profiles to suit the age of the house.

Tilt-and-turn windows

One handle lets the window tilt inwards at the top for secure ventilation, or swing fully open like a door. Tilt-and-turn suits flats, upstairs rooms and wide openings where you want easy cleaning from inside. The frames are sturdy, lock at several points around the sash and can be specified to meet fire escape sizes.

uPVC windows in Kingswinford: common questions

What do I need to do before fitting day?

Clear window sills and move furniture, ornaments and curtains about a metre back from each window. Take down blinds and curtain poles if they're fixed to the frame or reveal. Make sure there's parking or space for the van and frames, and tell us about alarms with sensors on the windows so they can be refitted.

How do I book a survey in Kingswinford?

Send the form on this page, use the guide-price tool or call 0800 088 6248 free. We'll ask a few questions about your new windows and arrange a time to visit.

How long does it take to replace the windows in a house?

Fitting usually takes one to two days for a typical house, working one opening at a time. The longer wait is manufacture: frames are made to measure after the survey, which normally takes four to six weeks. Bay windows or a large number of frames can add an extra day on site.

Who approves uPVC windows in Kingswinford?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Kingswinford is provided by Dudley Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
