WINDOWS Swindon

Measuring up your windows isn’t as hard as it may sound.

You’re not obliged to, but if you’re able to take some rough measurements of your windows and bring them to your design appointment, we’d be ever so grateful as it helps us get to know them.

With a tape measure, record the height and width of the window from inside the house at the top, middle, and bottom, jotting down the smallest width and largest height measurements for correctness. Log the depth of the window frame too and the window diagonals to guarantee squareness. Finally, confirm the window’s style identity, observe any of the opening mechanisms it possesses, and notify us of any obstructions we ought to be aware of.

Our windows are design to be durable and long lasting to keep your home energy efficient and secure.

Of all the home enhancements you make during your time in your existing home, buying new windows from TWC will rank up there with the best of them, maybe even right at the top.
