Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

With the deepening recession, a greater squeeze on household budgets and banks still it seems not too keen on lending, more and more customers have been enquiring whether or not Hazlemere offer finance. Well until today the answer was not at present, although it is something that has been under consideration for some time. With the sheer length of the UK economic downturn not abating, Hazlemere decided it was a service it needed to be able to offer to it’s customers, even though introducing it is actually another overhead for the business.

During my last three years at Hazlemere, the company had not gone through all the procedures required by law in order to be able to offer finance to consumers, as these take about…

Dozen tips on fitting lasting replacement double glazing

Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

When the significant changes to the Building Regulations came into force on 1st October 2010, the result meant that replacement double glazing costs soared, as no longer could home owners (or installers) legally fit the old cheaper non-compliant double glazing. It is now a legal requirement that both property owners and double glazing installers fit high performing energy rated windows and doors.

Given the fact that the new energy efficient products property owners must fit are more expensive than the obsolete double glazing that did not have a thermal break it is worth not rushing or being pressured into buying double glazing. Take the time to thoroughly check the double glazing you wish to purchase (or are being “sold”) is independently certified and approved, and…

Choosing a supplier because they can be “quick” is not always wise

Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

The last thing home owners want to end up with from a double glazing company is a hurried, miss-measured, badly fitted, wrongly specified or poor quality inefficient product. Any of these unfortunate outcomes can result in unwanted hassle trying to get it sorted. Property owners are better to take their time chosing the best suited energy saving product (and supplier) for their premises, rather than run the risk of ending up with a second rate poorly installed product, all for the sake of a few weeks or a few hundred pounds.When considering replacement double glazing, it is worth approaching well established independent local firms that offer a genuine no obligation free home consultation by an experienced windows and doors expert.

Ten tips when considering replacement double glazing

Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

Following are ten tips from industry professionals to help UK property owners get the best value for money deal when investing in replacement double glazed windows and doors for their home.

1. Nothing in life is “free”
Nothing is free, so whatever the inducement be it marketing scrappage schemes, “free” installation, no VAT (which of course legally has to be paid by the company you buy from to Her Majesty’s Government if the firm is VAT registered), they all might sound good but they all have to be paid for, so remember these will be built into the price of the windows or the “extras”. It is therefore important to compare like for like specifications, as well as the entire offering.

2. Always try

UPVC replacement windows save energy and money

Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

UPVC windows were initially created in reaction to the fact that conventional supplies of energy were diminishing and the window was one of the main causes of this. Frames used on old windows, such as timber and crittal steel windows, tended to become less and less reliable as time progressed, especially as they began to get older and consequently less thermally efficient. This resulted (and still results today in hundreds of thousands of UK properties) in draughts appearing in the home and an awful lot of energy being wasted. New windows counteract this, so it is essential from an energy saving point of view that all modern day homes invest in them to reduce costs and cut carbon emissions.

Today’s energy rated UPVC windows
