Getting Back To Business
Perhaps it is a form of balance that while getting people back to work is a large part of the repair business, consumers are also a big reason for the expansion of the glass trade across London. Last year saw an almost 9% increase in window work and installation as a combination from both repairs and refurbishment. While the glaziers London employs get new jobs every day, a large amount of that work is from return customers who need further alterations, or who have had alterations and now need an emergency repair.
Building On Integrity
FENSA has not only pushed for honesty within the trade, but also offered great incentives for changing windows out to result in more energy efficient designs. With the majority of replacements being covered by the scheme, it also allows for repair work to turn into an upgraded window style or type of glass. Businesses and homes across London have taken advantage of this and the result has not only been a lot of work for glaziers in London, but improved working and living conditions for residents.
Passing The Joy Along
Another aspect of FENSA that has helped to build the glazing trade in London is the crackdown on unauthorized installers and products. There is encouragement to report unaccredited installers, but also to pass along referrals for glaziers who are registered and in compliance. The result is that you are more apt and able to find technicians you can trust, for both emergencies and projects. This has also led London residents to give greater credence to a remodel, with the knowledge that quality technicians are being supported by the scheme. In this way, everyone receives benefits.
Growing Organically
Along with standards for installers, FENSA ensures standards for windows in terms of health and safety. The result is a variety of styles and designs that will create a safe and secure living and work space. Businesses or homes that have been deemed not up to code can take easy advantage of quick replacements, and this keeps industry and trade running smoothly throughout the city.
