uPVC Windows Buying Checklist
Ask about the profile series and brand, steel reinforcement, glass type, hardware, who installs, what the warranty covers and how service works. Compare quotations on the same specification.
The checklist
- Which profile series is quoted for each window, and why?
- Is there steel reinforcement inside the profile?
- What glass, and how thick?
- Which rollers, locks and handles are used?
- Is a mosquito mesh included where I need it?
- Who measures and installs: your own team or a contractor?
- How is the gap between frame and wall sealed?
- What does the warranty cover, and for how long?
- How quickly do you come for service?
- Is GST and installation included in the price?
Compare fairly
A cheaper quotation often has a smaller series, thinner glass or basic hardware. Compare like for like, and ask to see the actual product.
