For most homes, the physical installation of replacement windows is efficient and straightforward.

Our experienced team typically installs between two to four windows per day, depending on the size of the windows and the type of structure they are being fitted into, though timescales may vary based on individual project requirements.

But that's just the installation.

The full process - from your initial consultation to enjoying your finished windows - takes longer.

The Complete Timeline: What to Expect

Initial Consultation and Survey

Your journey begins with a no-obligation consultation at either our Billericay showroom or at your home.

We'll discuss your requirements, show you product options, and arrange a technical survey.

During the survey, we'll take precise measurements and assess any specific considerations for your property - things like wall construction, existing frame condition, and access requirements.

Manufacturing Your Windows

Once you've approved your quote and placed your order, your windows enter production.

Each window is custom-manufactured to your exact specifications and chosen style.

This isn't an off-the-shelf purchase. Your windows are built specifically for your home's measurements, which is why this stage takes a few weeks.

Quality manufacturing takes time, and we won't cut corners here.

Installation Days

Now it's time for things to move quickly. Our experienced installation team will:

• Carefully remove your old windows
• Prepare the openings and ensure they're ready for our new frames
• Fit your new windows, ensuring perfect alignment and weatherproofing
• Thoroughly clean up and remove all old materials
• Test every window to ensure smooth operation
  

What Affects Installation Time?

Several factors can influence how long the installation takes:

Property type:

Flats or properties with difficult access may require additional time for safety measures and material handling.

Window style:

Standard casement windows are quicker to install than bay windows or custom shapes.

Structural work:

If we discover issues with the existing frames or the surrounding structure, we may need extra time to address them properly.

Weather:

We can work in most conditions, but extreme weather may require us to reschedule for your protection and ours.

What Happens During Installation?

Each window is replaced one at a time, so your home is never left open to the elements.

There will be some noise - removing old windows and fitting new ones isn't silent work - but our team works efficiently and respectfully.

We'll protect your floors and furniture, and we'll clean up completely before we leave.

Can You Speed Up the Process?

The manufacturing timeline is fairly fixed - quality simply takes time. However, you can help keep things moving by:

• Being available for the initial survey
• Making your product selections promptly
• Ensuring clear access to all windows on installation day

The Bottom Line

From your first conversation with us to enjoying your new windows is an exciting process, maximising your home's true potential.

The great thing is the windows we install today are built to last - for years to come, you'll have virtually maintenance-free windows that continue to perform beautifully with minimal effort on your part.

If you're working to a specific deadline - perhaps you're selling your home or planning other renovations - let us know during your consultation.

We'll do everything possible to accommodate your schedule.
