Newlook Windows - Advice - FENSA
Newlook windows is a FENSA registered company.
Our FENSA registration number is 15659
FENSA stands for the Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme. It has been set up by the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF), with Government approval, in response to the new Building Regulations for England and Wales
From 1 April 2002, all replacement glazing in dwellings will come within the scope of the Building Regulations. From then on, anyone who installs replacement windows or doors will have to comply with improved thermal performance standards.
When having their windows and doors replaced from this date homeowners must ensure that they get a certificate form Local Authority Building Control or have the work completed by a FENSA Registered Company
One of the main reasons for this change to the Building Regulations is the need to reduce energy loss.
Choosing a FENSA registered supplier gives you peace of mind. As a FENSA registered member, we identify ourselves as having made a commitment to compliance with the new regulations and as offerring insurance-backed guarantees and deposit protection insurance.
All our own installations are registered with the local building control office through FENSA and a compliance certificate is issued by the relevant building control office.
We expect that 1% of all installations will be inspected by a FENSA appointed surveyor on a random basis.
Before you order your windows, please feel free to ask for evidence of self-certification or building control approval.
