Hiya, thinking about saving up for new Windows but no idea of a roundabout figure I should be saving. If anyone has had Windows lately please could they reply with:
1. Total Cost
2. Amount of Windows
3. If Windows are Basic, Average or Fancy
4. The County you live in
5. If you used a local or national firm
6. Any other info you feel may be of help.
Cheers me dears! :beer:

There is a site around online which will give you rough prices for windows (you theoretically have to put in details and an email address but it still displays on screen so you can put in nonsense!).
http://www.doubleglazingontheweb.co.uk/ - I haven't used them and wouldn't particularly advise it, but it does seem to give fairly comprehensive figures to at least give you a ball park.Adventure before Dementia!1 -
1. £3100
2. 11 UPVC double glazed windows
3. Not the cheapest nor the most expensive quote, therefore 'average'
4. South Wales
5. Local
6. Get several quotes. They virtually all use the same glass, therefore it is the 'profile' (ie the UPVC) that is important along with the quality of the fixtures. I was given the advice not to use national, but to go local. You don't necessary have to use 'professional' double glazing fitters as a good builder can also fit windows.0 -
