We are an independent window and glazing consultancy that offer a unique service to the construction industry.
We offer a complete service which includes full consultation with the design team, preparation of a detailed performance specification together with window and door schedules, budget cost analysis, assistance with detailing, provision of samples etc. Depending upon the procurement procedure we will either, obtain competitive quotations from suitably experienced sub-contractors and provide a detailed appraisal together with copies of all quotations received along with an appropriate recommendation or alternatively we can provide a suitable list of sub-contractors to enable competitive tenders to be sought by the competing main contractors. We thoroughly check and comment upon sub-contractors drawings and make all necessary site visits during the window and door installation and submit reports accordingly.
Our vast experience and knowledge of the industry enable us to discuss projects in a professional and totally unbiased manner. We are in a position to discuss the full range of window and glazing materials with you to ensure that you and your client benefit from a full choice of materials and suppliers as opposed to being guided by the traditional salesman influencing his product range at the exclusion of others.
Our in-depth knowledge of manufacturers within the industry also ensures that your client will have the benefit of receiving the most competitive prices with the knowledge that the prices have been provided by suitable sub-contractors against a specification leaving minimal scope for later hidden extra costs.
We provide a complete proposal package for each and every project; the package will include the specification, window and door schedules, enquiry details, quotations, analysis of quotations and where appropriate a final query sheet/ points to note section as a final check to ensure that all the requirements/proposals are fully appreciated and complied with. Our involvement continues until the satisfactory completion of the contract.
Our service is available to architects and clients without any direct cost since we are reimbursed by way of a fee from the successful window company. It is natural to assume that the overall cost of the glazing requirements will increase because of our involvement but we have proven over the past fifteen years that this is not the case; we always provide a minimum of three to six (or more) quotations for each and every project from competitive and competent companies. We use our knowledge and experience to ensure that competitive prices are provided by competent sub-contractors for every project. The prices provided also reflect the volume of enquiries which sub-contractors receive from Glazetek. We would also point out that the specification we produce rarely if ever allows an appointed sub-contractor to claim any hidden extra cost.
We have worked on numerous projects throughout the UK and we will be pleased to provide references upon request. The
