    Regardless of where you're based it's still not possible to give an accurate price without knowing what's involved/required on each job. Possible on supply only yes, not possible on supply and fit!
    There are number of ways to give fixed accurate price regardless of whats done? (Accuracy isn't the deal breaker )
    The outcome maybe be profit , break even. loss? You don’t need to know anything about the installation, Small print/T & C's to cover all eventualities with a good sprinkling of client ignorance and dubious hard sales methods ...
    [FONT=&quot]If accurate pricing was crucial then the likes of Everest [/FONT]certainly wouldn't be in the be in business :rotfl:
  • Hi, I am looking at buying 4 UPVC windows in Grey exterior, white interior. 2 are 2390 x 1365, one is 1213 x 1055, and the last is 635 x 1055. The latter 2 with obscure glass. Excluding fitting the price for supply I have received is £1500, which seems pretty reasonable to me. What do you think? Also, roughly how much would a tradesman charge to fit these four windows, replacing wooden windows, in Kent?
  • You need to provide further information such as openings required,quality of window/glass/guarantee.
    Are they ground floor/1st floor ETC.
    State of repair of building.
    I would also get supply and fix quotes from LOCAL recommended companies.
  • All windows are on the ground floor - the first two are four pane windows, two large side opening panes and one small top window. the second two - in bathroom, are two pane windows, with a small top opening and larger fixed panes. Fitting into brickwork in good condition.
