UPVC Windows

Postby petert74 » Wed Jan 30, 2008 5:58 pm

Can any reconmend any good reputable companys that supply and fit UPVC double glazzing windows in the Campo of Gibraltar area.

I dont want to open a can of worms, but have not seen any glazing companies arround. We are look to buy a house which has very old original windows that need replacing.

Any ideas???

Please No British Cow Boys, have enough problems fending of the spanish ones!!!!

Cheers

I had mine done via my builder by a company in Estacion San Roque. They were two brothers, the windows seem fine, I was very fussy as I wanted a similar product to what we get in UK with multi-locking points etc. If you need contact details or directions as they have a showroom/workshop, I'll get them for you.

We have them also and I highly recommend them. They cost a considerable lot more than the aluminium ones but IMHO are worth the extra cost. We had the french doors done in UPVC also, and you can feel the difference.
We found if you go in any of the large window places on the poligono´s most of them will be able to do them for you.

We used Old Kraft SA at Churriana...they cover the coast, they were OK.

do you need to apply for a building licence for replacement windows
