Window and door replacement in a social home

How do we deliver it?

Each home is surveyed before ordering, so the frames that arrive fit and meet the egress and ventilation requirements for that room.

Which rules apply in Chelmsford?

Replacement windows, heating systems and some electrical work are controlled under the Building Regulations. In higher-risk buildings (18 metres or 7 storeys and above, with two or more homes), building work needs Building Safety Regulator approval before it starts unless it is exempt.
