Preparing Your Home for uPVC Window Fitting

A little preparation makes fitting day go smoothly. Here's what helps before the team arrives.

Clear the area around each window inside and out
2
Move or cover furniture and valuables near the openings
3
Take down curtains, blinds, and grilles where needed
4
Ensure the team can access the openings easily
5
Plan for some dust and noise during removal

What this means for you
