Windows, Doors & Conservatories

Windows, Doors & Conservatories

Get the specification right before the sales visit

Windows and doors are a big investment and a major source of heat loss, draughts and noise when they are past their best. Conservatories with polycarbonate or old glass roofs are often unusable in summer and winter. A survey from Eco Home Co gives you an independent view of what needs replacing, what can be repaired and the performance you should insist on.

What the survey covers

• Condition of frames, seals, glazing units, hinges and locks, and which units are misted or failed
• Energy performance of the existing glazing and the U-values and Window Energy Ratings to specify
• Ventilation requirements including trickle vents under current Building Regulations
• Conservatory roof options: replacement glass, solid insulated roofs and the structural checks each needs
• Planning constraints in conservation areas, Article 4 areas and listed buildings
• Security standards, safety glazing locations and fire escape requirements

What you receive

A window-by-window schedule and specification that lets you obtain like-for-like quotes from FENSA or CERTASS registered installers, plus advice on the points to check in each quotation.
