Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our windows, doors, conservatories and installation services.

Which areas do you serve?

We primarily serve Bath, Westbury, and the surrounding areas across Somerset and Wiltshire. Please contact us to confirm coverage for your specific location. You can find our full coverage here.

How long does installation typically take?

Most window and door installations are completed within 1-3 days depending on the size of the project. Larger conservatory or orangery projects may take 1-3 weeks. We always aim to minimise disruption to your home.

Are your products energy efficient? What are the best products for reducing heating bills and stopping draughts in older UK homes?

Yes. Our VEKA uPVC and aluminium windows and doors are A-rated for energy efficiency, with excellent thermal insulation. This can significantly reduce your heating bills and improve comfort all year round.

What warranties do you offer?

We provide comprehensive warranties on all products, typically 10 years on frames and up to 10-15 years on glazing, plus an insurance-backed guarantee on installations. Full details are provided during your consultation.

How much do windows, doors, and conservatories really cost?

Entrance doors start at £1,000, a set of windows could range from £1,000 to £10,000+, and conservatories are typically £15,000 to £25,000.

Do I need planning permission for a conservatory, windows, or doors in a listed building in areas such as Bath or Bradford on Avon?

Many conservatories fall under permitted development rights, but it depends on the size, location, and your property type. Our team will advise you fully during the design and survey stage and handle any necessary applications.

Can I replace my cold conservatory roof with a solid tiled roof without planning permission?

Yes, in almost all cases replacing a standard conservatory roof with an insulated tiled roof falls under Permitted Development and does not require planning permission.

What is the difference between uPVC and aluminium?

uPVC offers excellent insulation and low maintenance at a more affordable price. Aluminium provides a slimmer, more contemporary look with greater strength for larger openings, though it is generally more expensive.

How do I get a quote?

You can request a free online quote via our design tool, call us on 01373 826 935, or book a no-obligation home survey. We provide transparent, tailored pricing with no hidden costs.

Do your products require much maintenance?

Our uPVC and aluminium products are designed for minimal maintenance – simply clean with warm soapy water. They will not rot, warp or require repainting like timber alternatives.

What is the difference between a conservatory and an orangery and which is better?

Conservatories are typically entirely glass, while an orangery will contain brickwork. Orangeries have more stable temperatures, retaining warmth in winter without experiencing temperature fluctuations caused by solar energy, but may be harder to get approval for than a conservatory, depending on the type of building.
