Frequently asked questions

Aluminium or PVC?

Aluminium offers slimmer frames and high rigidity; PVC insulates well at an often different cost. A dedicated PVC service also exists.

Can the existing frame be kept?

Depending on its condition, a renovation fit is sometimes possible; otherwise full removal.

Are shutters or grilles included?

No, unless agreed; dedicated services exist for insect screens and security grilles.

What information should I give?

Number of windows, approximate dimensions, opening type, colour, floor and access.
