Useful starting points for researching a project in Scotland.

Take these questions to your survey

What problem are we trying to solve? Are the original windows sound and watertight? What permission checks are needed? Can the inner glazing preserve shutters, opening access and any escape function?

What exact glass and frame are proposed? What performance evidence applies? Who checks dimensions? What work, VAT, delivery, aftercare and making good does the quotation include?
