Double Glazing enquiries soar as Winter chills creep in

Double Glazing enquiries soar as Winter chills creep in.

Everywhere you look there is evidence of Winter's approach – from piles of golden leaves covering the streets and pavements to the shorter days and the need for thicker coats when venturing outside.

Home owners will also be feeling the effects of dropping temperatures and darker nights as heating thermostats creep up, and mental notes are made to shop for thicker curtains.

Of course, with the advancements in Upvc windows and doors, and new glass technologies that reflect heat and cold out, we can all enjoy warmer homes without extortionate fuel bills.

And now is the perfect time to enjoy some pre-Christmas offers coupled with the modern excellent window and door frames designs now on offer.

Modern Upvc double glazed windows and doors have come a long way. Many feature multi-compartment frames which help trap warm air and add to the all round insulation properties of the unit. Steel re-inforcement has made warping a thing of the past and modern composites mean discolouration went out with the Ark.

Extra features like locking handles, both ways opening and tilt n'turn styles, which make it easier to clean your windows from the inside are now readily available. Perhaps you need a window that will double as a fire escape? No problem.

And Owners of period properties can also enjoy the benefits of Upvc with quality sash style frames carefully designed to blend in with existing character features.

When Henry Ford said “Any colour – as long as it's black”, he could have been referring to windows (in the literal sense). White is no longer the only colour on the street. Until recently, you may have been offered Oak or Cherry even but now even that choice has been extended as modern materials mean a greater choice.
It's also made it possible for many Double Glazing companies to offer a combination of colours – perhaps oak on the outside but white on the inside would suit you better?

The Industry itself seems to have gone through a transformation as well with pushy, doorstep tactics (whilst still used by some) on the decline as window companies focus on customer care as a priority, and realise that a customer treated properly, will come back for other work later – conservatories, roofing and fascia etc.

WindowQuoter was set up to offer home owners the opportunity to get instant on line price guides for their double glazing requirements. You can enter your own window measurements, select the style of window – bay or bow, number and position of openers etc and receive an expectation of price there and then all from the comfort of your own home without the need for a salesman to call.

Later, we'll call you and just confirm that you were able to get your online quote. As part of our online service, we can then offer you the opportunity to get up to 3 written quotations for the work you want doing that will be valid for 6 months and come from approved, local to you, companies on our registered database of over 600 companies covering the UK.

It's a completely free service to you – the home owner – and you can be assured of receiving written quotations without any selling pressure as the companies we select will know that other companies will also be offering quotations. This means you get no inflated price tactics etc.

It's a service we've been offering to home owners for the last 7 years (we are industry leaders in providing online quotations) and we can now say that practically someone on every street in the UK has used our service.

If you avail yourself of our free service, then we'll email you details of your own secure login area so you can verify which companies we've passed your details onto. You can leave feedback on your experiences with that company and if you decide to accept one of the quotations from one of our recommended companies, then you can print off your own pre-filled deposit protection certificate.
