Planning your new windows in Warwick
Work like this in Warwick rarely needs planning permission, but parts of the job must meet Building Regulations — certified electrical work, ventilation or energy-efficiency standards, for example. Your quote shows how each part is signed off. If planning does come into it, say for a listed building, Warwick District Council is the authority.
- You should receive a building regulations certificate for new windows, which a buyer's solicitor will ask to see.
- Each window is replaced and sealed before the next one is removed, so no room is left open overnight.
- Bay windows often carry weight from above, so the structure is checked before the old frames come out.

Choices to weigh up in Warwick
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.

Questions about uPVC windows in Warwick
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.
Do you cover Warwick?
Yes. Warwick (CV34) is about 24 miles from our West Bromwich base and inside the area we cover. Call 0800 088 6248 or send the form on this page to book a free survey.
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.
Does Warwick District Council need to approve my new windows?
You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Warwick is provided by Warwick District Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
