Top Tips Before You Buy
Need to buy replacement glass and glazing products for your home? Here are some tips on how to get the window, door, mirror and conservatory solutions you need, as well as all the benefits of using a GGF Member Company.
1. Find local GGF Members
Use our Find a Member search to find the 3 glazing companies nearest to your home.
2. Match companies to your needs
Check the glazing companies you are contacting actually provide the products and services you require.
3. Seek multiple quotes
Ask for a price quote from each of the companies you have contacted.
4. Verify GGF Membership
Double-check the company is a current GGF Member – ask for their Certificate of Membership.
5. Read the contract
Make sure you have read the contract in full and are aware of all terms and conditions.
6. Guarantees/warranties
Ask the company about any guarantees and warranties for the products and/or services to be provided.
7. Make informed decisions
Consider what you want in terms of style and design, and also the age, type and location of your home.
If you are still undecided, browse the ideas found in the Be Inspired section of MyGlazing.com or contact a GGF Member to discuss your home improvement needs in more detail.
8. Verify cancellation terms
Check the cancellation terms being offered. Ask the company you select about the cancellation/cooling-off period and the date from when this begins.
Most companies do not offer a cancellation period for made-to-measure windows, however GGF Member companies offer a 7-day cancellation period for made-to-measure work from the date you sign the contract.
9. Enquire about additional work required
Ask if any additional work or processes may have to be undertaken as a result of the work you are planning.
