About Windows & Doors
Glazing beads and how to remove them
Glazing beads hold the glass inside the frame. External beads are safer against intruders, internal beads are easier to service. Ask which type you have and how to pop a bead out without breaking it. Keep a spare bead set aside in case one cracks during future reglazing.
Measuring the opening the right way
Width and height are taken brick to brick in 3 spots: top, middle, bottom. The smallest reading sets the frame size after a 10 mm fitting gap all around. Old houses may have out-of-square frames, so note the diagonal difference. Never trust a quote based on rough measurements taken by phone.
Checking the work before paying
Open and close every sash before the team leaves. Look for even gaps of 3 to 5 mm around the frame. Run a damp finger along seals to find air leaks. Check sills with a spirit level. Water-test doors with a hose for 10 minutes before signing the completion form.
Damp around frames and where it hides
Damp patches near the head or sill often point to a broken bridge in the frame, not the wall. Run your hand along the reveal and feel for cold spots. Ask the fitter to drill a small inspection hole in the frame cavity and confirm the insulation is continuous.
How long installation takes
A standard casement window swap takes 1 to 2 hours per unit. A full house of 8 to 10 windows usually finishes in 2 days. Front doors take 3 to 5 hours, French doors up to a full day. Rendering, plaster touch-ups, or structural repairs add extra time to the schedule.
Guarantees and paperwork to keep
Ask for a written warranty covering frames, glass units, and hardware separately. Sealed glass units often carry a 10-year fog-free guarantee. Installation labour should be warranted for at least 2 years. Keep the FENSA or equivalent certificate for insurance and future property sales.
Acoustic glass for busy streets
If you face a road or railway, acoustic laminated glass cuts noise by 6 to 10 decibels over standard double glazing. The panes have a sticky interlayer that dampens vibration. Ask for the Rw rating in writing and compare it across quotes rather than trusting vague terms like soundproof.
Signs your old frame has failed
Condensation inside the glass means the seal is gone. Drafts around the edges point to broken gaskets or warped timber. Soft black spots on sills show water has pooled for months. Stiff handles and cracked putty mean the unit is past repair and replacement is the safer choice now.
Frame style and how it fits the wall
Choose the frame style to match your wall opening. Casement frames swing open, tilt-and-turn frames tilt in, and fixed frames do not open. Check the reveal depth in millimetres so the frame sits flush with plaster. Ask the fitter to confirm the wall makeup before ordering a profile.
Lead time for made-to-measure orders
Standard white frames in common sizes arrive in 2 to 3 weeks. Coloured, foiled or non-standard sizes stretch to 5 to 7 weeks. Ask the supplier to print the order confirmation with the dispatch date and the delivery date so you can book the fitter with a real window.
