Replacement UPVC Window Supplier
Hi All,
Can anybody recommend a good online or otherwise supplier of off the shelf UPVC windows? I just need to replace two rears which seem to be a fairly standard 60x100, hopefully they shouldnt be too expensive. I did a quick websearch but could only find installers rather than sellers... Thanks for any feedback, Matthew |

They make up windows to any size to order, there's often no benefit to picking any standard size... eg I got some quotes for a standard size window which my local firm would have made up from scratch; they easily beat the Screwfix price.

David u-fit have a really good website and I almost ordered a window from them. The only downside is that they charge about £75.00 delivery unless you are within their local postcode ( CV ). |

Thanks for any feedback, Matthew I suggest you find the local REHAU factory, a small percentage of the price of the same item fitted. All the local window fitters will shop there. Rick |
