Ask for the names and phone numbers of their local clients so you can ask them how they rated the work done. Having finally chosen a double glazing company to ensure that any quotes for the work, including delivery times and time expected to carry out the fitting, are put in writing. Also, ask if there are likely to any additional costs and insist that these are also put in writing. It is also advisable to check what kind of guarantee will cover your new windows mainly since lifetime guarantees can be restricted to a set number of years.
