Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need consent for window replacement in NZ?

In most cases, like-for-like replacements may not require consent, but structural changes or full frame replacements might. We recommend checking with your local council if you are unsure.

What's the difference between retrofit and full replacement?

Retrofit upgrades the glass within existing frames, while full replacement involves removing and installing new window systems. Full replacement is usually needed when frames are damaged or unsuitable for retrofit.

How long does installation take?

Single window or small jobs can be completed within a day. Multiple windows or full replacements typically take several days. Larger projects or full house upgrades may take a week or more, depending on the number of windows and doors, system type, and structural work required.

Do you supply windows and doors?

Yes, we work with trusted manufacturers to supply high-quality joinery systems and handle full installation.
