CERTASS & QANW

Following changes to the building regulations which took effect from 1 st April 2002 the replacement windows and doors now fall within the requirements of the regulations. In simple terms these regulations dictate that the householder must either apply for approval from Local Authority Building Control or use a contractor who is registered with a competent person scheme that can allow contractors to self certify their work. A condition of these regulations is that the installing contractor must give or at least offer insurance cover to the householder.

For this reason it is important that you choose your installer carefully ; K.L Windows & Doors is a member of the Certass Certification & self assessment competent persons scheme and the QANW (Quality Assured National Warranties) 10 year insurance backed guarantee.

Certificate is required for:

• Replacement of whole of the fixed frame and opening parts of windows and doors.

Certification is not required for:

• Replacing broken glass
• Replacing fogged double glazing units
• Rooflines
• Extensions to buildings at ground level comprising a conservatory that is no longer than 30m sq.

Deposit Indemnity Scheme:

This scheme offers the customer an assurance that if we cease to trade, your contract deposit is safe. This is valid until the installation date.

Insurance Guarantee Scheme:

In the unlikely event we cease to trade we offer a 10 year insurance backed guarantee whereby you can claim for repair of any installation or material defects that may arise. The guarantee is issued alongside our own guarantee and after sales advice sheet.

Please ask for further details if you have any questions.
