Why It’s Crucial To Use Knowledgeable FENSA Glaziers
All across London’s thirty two boroughs, there are some new rules that impact glaziers London locals may use. Those rules are known as FENSA – the Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme – and they will make a difference in your next double- or triple- glazing project.
What is FENSA all about? FENSA rules establish clear standards for the thermal performance standards of windows and doors. In order to complete a project involving glazing, the home owner needs to get a certificate from FENSA or Local Authority Building Control.
If the contractors you select do not know FENSA well, you may be in for issues down the line:
— You might have to spend additional funds bringing your project up to the FENSA standards.
— You may need to scrap the entire project and start from scratch, losing the materials purchased.
— You might have to deal with additional bureaucracy from Local Authority Building Control.
— You might end up with shoddy windows or doors that are prone to warping or cracking.
Although FENSA is a self-reporting scheme, that does not mean that poor craftsmanship cannot come back to haunt you in the future. The best way to make sure that you won’t have FENSA-related issues down the road is to make sure things are done correctly the first time.
