New Double Glazed units to match

[Paul-man]

Hi, I'm soon to have a builder start an extension to my house, which will involve some new windows. I have agreed with the builder that I will supply and he will fit. So now is the time to order the units. (I hope I'm not too late as I'm unsure of the lead times)

I have the paperwork from the DG installation that took place here in 2007. The design is classed as "Sculptured" with square leaded.

I've searched online and have found some described as sculptured, but also some called "Ovolo". Are they the same thing? They look similar to each other.

Searching online for these seems to be a complete minefield. No prices up front- everyone wants you to submit a form and contact you with a price!

Any advice?

you would be better finding out the name of the profile used in your existing windows i.e. rehau, veka, profile 22, spectus etc (it should be printed somewhere inside a frame) then you can find a local supplier of that profile. This way you will get a match.

Thanks for the tip. I've looked all around the frames and can't see any kind of manufacturer name. All I see is NiCo on one of the hinges.

I'll take a look at some supply only outlets and try to find an approximate match.
