Questions to ask window fitters near me

Are you licensed and insured?

Make sure to ask your window fitter what insurance they have before you hire them. While it’s not a requirement, it’s a good idea for them to have public liability insurance to cover both of you against any accidental damage done to your home or personal injuries. This will guarantee protection for both parties and ensure your tradesperson is legally compliant.

How many years of experience do you have?

Knowing how many years of experience your window installer has will allow you to pick a tradesperson who you are confident has sufficient expertise to carry out a high quality job. When you’re finding a window fitter through Rated People, head over to their profile to check out the pictures on their work gallery and their ratings and reviews.

How long will the job take?

Knowing what your project’s estimated timeline is will help you set realistic expectations about how long your window replacement will take to complete.

How much will the job cost?

Asking how much the job will cost will help you budget for your project and will ensure price transparency before you hire. How much you’ll end up spending depends on the scope of your project, and where you live in the UK, so make sure you add plenty of details when you post a job.

Do you use subcontractors? If so, are they licensed and insured?

If your window fitter is planning on using subcontractors, then it’s a good idea to confirm the insurance coverage of everyone who will be working on the project, so make sure you ask before you hire.
