Frequently asked questions

How much do new windows and doors cost in EH91?

Could I get windows or doors funded by the government?

Double glazing can be included in Warm Homes Plan grant packages for eligible households. If you receive a qualifying means-tested benefit and your home has an EPC rating of D or below, check the Warm Homes Plan double glazing eligibility page before paying privately.

What materials are available for windows and doors in EH91?

The main options are uPVC (most common, low maintenance, cost-effective), aluminium (slim frames, modern look, more expensive), and timber (traditional look, requires more maintenance). Doors are commonly composite (most popular for front doors), uPVC, or aluminium. The right choice depends on your budget, property style, and maintenance preferences.

Do I need planning permission to replace windows and doors?

In most cases, replacing windows and doors with like-for-like units on a standard residential property does not require planning permission. Exceptions include listed buildings, properties in conservation areas, and some leasehold flats. Your installer will advise you on any local restrictions in EH91.

Are the installers accredited?

Reputable installers in EH91 hold FENSA or CERTASS registration for window and door installation. This confirms compliance with Building Regulations and removes the need for a council inspection. Always ask to see registration before agreeing to work.

Is the quote service free?

Yes. Requesting quotes is free and there is no obligation. The service is funded by commissions paid by participating installers.
