Installation: what happens and what you can expect

A good installation is mostly planning and careful finishing. This guide explains how our team handles measurement, removal, fitting, sealing, and aftercare. We aim to protect your home, keep noise and dust manageable, and leave a result that looks clean from both inside and outside. If you have concerns about access, parking, pets, or specific building rules, mention them in your quote request and we will plan around them. For many projects, we can complete standard window replacements efficiently while keeping your home secure at all times.

Step-by-step overview

Every property is a little different, but the core steps are consistent. We use checks at each stage so the final fit is square, sealed, and smooth to operate.

Ask about your property

1. Confirm measurements

We measure width, height, reveal depth, and check the condition of the surrounding structure. We confirm opening direction and ventilation needs so the product specification matches your space.

2. Remove old units

We protect floors and nearby furniture, then remove old frames and glass safely. We keep openings secure and manage debris so your home stays usable throughout the day.

3. Fit and align

New frames are positioned, checked for level and plumb, then secured. Sashes and hardware are installed and tested for smooth operation and correct closing pressure.

4. Seal against drafts and moisture

We apply appropriate sealing to reduce drafts and prevent water ingress. This step is critical for long-term comfort. We also ensure drainage paths are clear where the system requires it.

5. Finish and handover

We fit trims and finishing pieces, tidy the area, and walk you through operation and care. If a follow-up adjustment is needed after settling, we schedule it without fuss.

Common questions
