Basic Casement Replacement
What is a basic casement replacement service?
We’ve often found that our customers like to time their window replacements to coincide with other works to minimise disruption. Occasionally, we’d even find that the customer had contracted multiple people to do the same task, like plastering for example. For this reason, we created a basic casement replacement service, whereby we offer a much more slimmed down service.
What’s the point of having a slimmed down service?
Because occasionally there’s other work going on in the property, and services provided by different trades can overlap. It’s therefore quite important that we be flexible with the service we offer so we can make the process as smooth as possible. This will save you a lot of money – up to 30% on our comprehensive fit. This allows all your contractors to work without stepping on each others toes, keeping your building works as smooth and hassle free as possible.
Our basic casement replacement service is as follows:
- Remove existing aluminium or timber casement windows.
- Supply & fit new frames with double glazed windows – New frames will be manufactured from engineered, finger jointed laminated timber and be preservative & fungicide treated.

As detailed above, certain services are only provided at your specific request. We are always happy to tailor our service to your needs, so just be sure to speak with your surveyor about what it is you need. We know that you may not fully understand what each of these services are. That’s why our staff are always available to help with any questions you might have.
