Frequently Asked Questions

What glass breakage cover is included?
Our policies include accidental glass breakage cover during installation, removal, and transit. This covers replacement costs for damaged windows and doors.
Do I need certification for window installation?
While not legally required, certifications like FENSA or CERTASS are highly recommended and often required by clients. They demonstrate competence and compliance with building regulations.
Is water ingress covered?
We provide cover for claims arising from poor installation causing water ingress. This is typically covered under professional indemnity insurance.
