Our highly skilled fitters removing old steel windows and then installing new aluminium steel replacement windows in a block of flats on the 7th floor. No scaffolding is in place, but our fitters are attached with harnesses to bespoke fixing brackets which have each been tested to 7 kN force.

I first used You Choose over ten years ago and found the company to be professional, reliable and competitive. What I like about Tim is that it really is a personal service. You don't have to go through a haggling or bartering process trying to complete the deal. Matt and his team were the installers on both occasions and the quality of the work and finish is superb and the aftercare is really good.

The whole process from start to finish was managed exceptionally well by You Choose windows. The install team was even more efficient than I had anticipated and I was back in the flat a day early. The team had gone above and beyond, cladding all the service with insulation. Thank you to the Your Choose windows team for making my life significantly warmer and quieter.

A massive thank you to your colleagues who came to fit the windows at our flat. They are looking fantastic (the windows that is). The guys were brilliant. Punctual, efficient, helpful, full of tips and suggestions, easy to have around the place, cleaned up and said nice things about the tea I made. All in all, couldn’t have been better.

All things being equal our new aluminium steel replacement windows will have less condensation than original steel windows, see fifth photo in gallery above, but condensation is caused by the relationship between temperature and relative humidity, so it is still possible to get some condensation with your new windows, depending on what happens inside your property. There are a few actions you can take to minimise condensation, which we can advise upon.
We have developed a method in conjunction with our professional safety consultant that is safe. Take a look at the video above to see our fitters doing this.
We recommend going out or being away while we are installing your new windows so that we can keep disruption to a minimum. We will make good any damage to plaster work up to decorating standard.
