Yes, looking for supply and fit companies.the_gardener_2 said:Do you want a window frame and glazing units or someone to install them as well. There are trade suppliers around .0 -
it is like any other website but a little more reliable i find from experience. read the tradesmen reviews and choose ones with at least 50+ positive reviews.coachman12 said:

personal recommendation is always best, but if you don't have this, then checkatrade is a good option. i find this better than just googling local tradesmen.0 -

I've used checkatrade type sites a few times with no problems. If you use them as a way of making contact and then meet and assess the people as you would normally then they can be useful. There are rogues everywhere but most tradespeople are honest.
For double glazing, you could try this service.

Get on local facebook groups and ask there. Just watch out for the recommendations that come from the friends and relations of the business. At least this way you're getting answers from your locality, rather than a national website.0
