We have been having problems for a year with new windows we had fitted. We had 4 windows and a door fitted. They could not put in the 'legally required' lintel so shoved a slab of concrete in the front and left it - that window leaks.
The door leaks to the point where the dog needs a canoe in the hallways when it rains.
Most of all they are all out of line, not one window has a right angle, the seals are misaligned and the joints on the windows inside and out are unsightly.
An Expert witness has said that these are annoying little defects, and that the joints can be 'knifed' to a standard expected of new windows inside and out.
I have attached a couple of pictures, but there are plenty more, this company have harassed us and tried to bully us into paying before they are complete. FENSA failed them back in February, the day they were failed the Company fraudulently claimed a pass cert via the self-cert system.
We have just about had it all. We are back in Court Monday, they have written statements which personally attack us and our home, but no mention of getting the work done!
Expert witness agreed to door was warped and leaking, the joints needed to be re-knifed, 75% of the beading needs to be replaced, but said that with regards to defacing our property, we should just get our home rendered!! I thought it had to be left as it was found. He also said that there were no lintels in the upstairs windows despite being charged for them and told they are a legal requirement.
