By Roland Paul Eastman

Double glazing has become increasingly popular over the years. As power bills continue to rocket and as we are all being urged to cut down on the amount of energy we use, double glazing is fast becoming an essential addition to any home. Whether you need to fit your home's first set of double glazed windows, or replace some older ones, finding a reliable company to maufacture and fit your windows is very important.

You should have no problem finding a double glazing company here in the United Kingdom. They advertise their services on commercial television, in the newspapers, have stands at events, send circulars through the doors and have their telesales teams ringing us at home. Even smaller localised companies advertise in the want ad columns in our local newspapers, offering to take care of our double glazing needs.

No matter how many double glazing companies there are out there, you still need to find one that sells the best products, fits them at the best possible price and is thoroughly professional in how it carries out the work. So contact several different double glazers and get quotes from each of them. And if they send a representative round to your home to discuss the work to be done, ensure there is no charge for the consultation. Also ask around friends, family and neighbours to see who they might recommend to do your double glazing. You can also ask the double glazing companies if they have done any work in your locality, then check out what their customers think of the work done.

There are strict regulations covering the installation of double glazing and in England and Wales it is covered by the FENSA scheme which ensures any work is compliant with building regulations and is dependable and safe. So it is important you only deal with FENSA registered companies, You can check with your local council which companies are registered.

Before agreeing a deal with a double glazing company, ask what kind of guarantee they offer. If they say it is for life, enquire if that actually means life and not the usual 30 years.

Good double glazing will save on your energy costs and enhance the beauty and value of your home. But first it is necessary to find a competent company which offers economical prices to install them. - 29956
