Compare the product specification as well as the number of windows

Frame profile, glazing, ventilation, hardware and installation details can differ substantially even when two quotes list the same number of openings.

  • List the number, rough size and opening style of each window.
  • Say whether whole frames or only sealed glass units are being replaced.
  • Mention listed-building or conservation-area status before manufacturing starts.
  • Confirm trims, making good, disposal, ventilation and compliance documentation.

London window permissions

Heritage designations can change what replacement window is acceptable

Many London homes can use standard replacement routes, but the capital also has an unusually large concentration of conservation areas and listed buildings.

London has more than 1,000 conservation areas and around 19,000 listed-building entries

The London Plan records more than 1,000 conservation areas and around 19,000 list entries for historic buildings. Individual boroughs can also use Article 4 directions to remove normal permitted-development rights. Check the exact property before assuming a standard replacement frame is acceptable.

Historic England recommends retaining significant historic windows where possible

Historic England explains that works to listed buildings can require listed-building consent, while Article 4 directions can introduce planning controls in conservation areas. Its retrofit guidance generally favours repairing and sensitively upgrading significant historic windows rather than automatically replacing them.

CamdenIslingtonHackneyGreenwichWandsworthEalingCroydonBarnet

Check heritage status before ordering non-returnable frames

If a home is listed or subject to conservation-area controls, frame material, glazing bars, colour and sightlines may matter. Establish the approval position before manufacture.

A failed sealed unit does not always require a whole new frame. Where the frame and hardware remain serviceable, replacing only a blown double-glazed unit can be a much smaller repair.

How it works

Up to three interested London window professionals can respond.

Compare product and fitting

Check reviews, frame and glass specification, warranty, installation, making good and permissions.

Before you hire

What should you check before hiring a window specialist?

The right window has to suit the building, perform properly and comply with any approval requirements that apply.

Confirm the full specification

Compare frame profile, opening style, glazing, hardware, ventilation and colour rather than only unit count.

Check permissions before ordering

For listed buildings or controlled conservation areas, establish the approval route before frames are manufactured.

Agree making good and certification

Ask who removes old units, repairs reveals and supplies relevant compliance documentation.

Questions

Window Specialists in London: common questions

Useful answers before you post the job.

How much do replacement windows cost in London?

MyJobQuote's current broad UK examples are about £350–£600 for a standard uPVC casement, £600–£1,100 for a uPVC sash and £1,200–£2,800 for a bay-window project. Access and heritage requirements can increase London quotes.

Can I replace only a blown double-glazed unit?

Often yes if the existing frame and hardware are sound. MyJobQuote's current guide places a standard replacement sealed unit around £55–£145 depending on size and specification.

Can a London conservation area restrict replacement windows?

Yes. London has more than 1,000 conservation areas, and some boroughs use Article 4 directions that remove normal permitted-development rights. Check the exact property before ordering.

What if my London property is listed?

Alterations affecting the special interest of a listed building can require listed-building consent. Historic England generally encourages retention and repair of significant historic windows where feasible.

Do I have to hire a window specialist who responds?

No. Up to three interested local professionals can respond and there is no obligation to hire.
