Hi
We had to exchange the external door to the side of the building - we decided to go for a big company to make sure there are no trouble - unfortunatelly there are
The upvc doors were installed, my wife signed that the product is ok and the guys left, what we noted on the next 2 days:
1. the doors are installed uneven, you can see it on the ground (compared to the tiles) and you can measure the depht the door is installed on the inside wall - the difference is approx. 30mm in depth
2. and this got me more than the first one - what the installers did they just drilled the frame to the sides to the brick wall and filled the 10-15mm gap between the frame and the brick with sealant. When it gets colder what happens theres a cold bridge near the ground on the sides on the sealant and also on the doorstep - resulting in two water pools on the floor from the inside.
My question is simple: will I be able to request the doors to be taken out and re-fitted properly?
By properly I mean: even and using proper insulation - meaning - usinng thermal insulation foam on the gaps
