Secondly, you need to find a company who you can trust to supply and fit your windows to a very high level at a cost that doesn’t break the bank. To make this a lot easier, FENSA is here. This is a scheme authorised by the government to help protect people when buying double glazing. Fitter Windows are registered with FENSA, giving you peace of mind when ordering your new replacement windows or doors from us.
FENSA is an industry standard for fitters of double glazed window and doors and you should always look for the brand logo when replacing your uPVC windows.
Benefits of FENSA double glazing includes:
• A reduction in time and costs as you will not need to register your installation of double glazed windows and doors with the local authority yourself. This can not only save you the time and hassle but also potentially hundreds of pounds.
• You will not have the added cost and time of arranging assessment by Building Control as compliance with Building Regulations is standard.
• There is added confidence in trusting a FENSA installer for your uPVC windows as the brand is trusted by local authorities, the industry and the government.
• When an independent report commissioned by the Government was published it found that FENSA was the most successful of all competent person schemes within the UK to date across all industries. This means you can have every confidence that your double glazing will be to the highest standard.
• You don’t need to worry about a botch job as all FENSA registered companies are re-assessed regularly by an independent inspection body to ensure that there is consistency across both service and building regulations.
• You have plenty of choice as almost 9,000 companies across the country have joined FENSA including many builders, double glazing companies, property developers, housing associations and many more.
• There is an easy review system as customers can provide a rating score for installers so you can read up on any company before you choose them.
• You have deposit protection as any FENSA registered business that takes deposits in advance of installation must give deposit indemnity and they must be guaranteed by the trade association Deposit Indemnity Schemes or credit card protection. So you know you won’t be out of pocket if something goes wrong.
If you choose a FENSA registered business for your double glazing needs then the registered business must give you a guarantee or warranty for the work for ten years. This includes any defects but also the cost of completing rectification work should it be needed. A building regulations certification will be given and it will be sent directly by FENSA to demonstrate compliance which will be incredibly important if you choose to sell your house in the future.
FENSA Registered Window Fitters
For a company to become FENSA registered they are vetted at the start of the registration which will include a pre-approval inspection, checking the company’s surveyor and installer competences, financial checks, ensuring there is employer’s liability for at least £10M and public liability for at least £2M, any guarantees or warranties must be clearly written and there must be consumer contract documents complete with terms and conditions.
As you can see it isn’t straightforward to become a FENSA regulated business so any which are are to be trusted.
