Glass Accreditation

When choosing a double glazing company it is sensible to find one that is accredited and widely known as a reputable and reliable contractor.London Glazing know these organisations. To achieve this there are 3 organisations that encourage this. As you look at the details of any of the double glazing companies, they must have one or more of these accreditations:
1). GGF: is short for the glass and glazing federation They are always trying to increase the standards o quality in the glazing industry. If you use a double glazing company who is a member of the GGF you can guarantee that the glazed units they use are the best. All the members are regularly updated about the latest advances in the industry. This allows them to supply the best quality glass. There is no real chance of an inferior glazing product when you choose a company that is registered with the Glass and Glazing Federation.London Glaziers are professionals.

2). FENSA: Is the Fenestration Self Assessment Scheme. The GGF actually helped to form FENSA. The whole idea is for new window installations to conform and put standards in place for thermal performance in the home. If you choose a member of FENSA, it will automatically be done for the customer. They are able to self certify that an installation meets all the legal requirements. FENSA might be referred to as a Competent Person Scheme.

3). CERTASS: is also a Competent Person Scheme. Its aim is to ensure top quality glazing products are installed in different types of homes. Any non member of Certass, would need to submit a building notice or seek approval from an inspector regarding the installation. Not all double glazing companies are the same. If you use a company that holds membership of one or more of the above organisations (particularly Fensa and Certass) you know that any installation will be much easier to finish. It also means that any installation will meet all current regulations without having to declare it.
