New windows and doors are a significant investment, and quotations can vary considerably between companies.
Comparing the final price alone doesn’t always reveal what you’re actually buying.
Compare specifications
Check the actual window or door system being quoted.
Also compare:
- Frame material
- Glazing specification
- Colour
- Hardware
- Configuration
- Ventilation
- Cills and finishing details
- Installation
- Removal of existing products
- Making good
- Any building work
Two quotations that initially appear similar may contain quite different specifications.
Ask who is responsible for measuring
Made-to-measure windows and doors rely on accurate dimensions.
Make sure it is clear who is responsible for the final survey and manufacturing sizes.
Think beyond the cheapest quotation
Price matters, but so do the suitability of the product, specification and quality of installation.
The objective should be obtaining the right product for the property at a fair price rather than simply finding the lowest headline figure.
Use a company that can offer alternatives
A company offering different products can compare solutions based on the project.
Bi Folds & Windows Direct supplies aluminium bifold and sliding doors, aluminium windows, uPVC windows, composite entrance doors and roof glazing.
This allows us to look at the complete project rather than trying to make one product suitable for every customer.
