    And the national i used 2 months ago still have not send the fensa or the guarantee. Not saying they are all the same but i will not use a national again.
  • In the road where I used to live were also the homes of several local tradesmen of good reputation - a plumber, a bathroom renovator, an electrician, a carpenter, a small works builder. I asked them who they had used to install their double glazing. Without fail they all came up with the same name.

    I used him on my home there and was so pleased, that three years later, I used him again on this property.

    My suggestion is that local tradespeople get to know who-is-doing-what and to what standard. No higher nor more genuine recommendation than when their own homes get done by a particular person. (Funnily enough, not one of them had a good word to say about the Nationals!)

    please, please, please do not use Safestyle UK, they are absolutely rubbish rip off merchants. If you ring your local trading standards office, they have a list of approved tradesmen in you area and can give you the names of them. Hope this helps.
