Decided to have windows replaced. Had a quote and they told me that I would need to have lintels installed in the openings as none exist and building regs now stipulate this. That is fine but I was wondering how much work is involved. The quote for installing lintels is only slightly less than the replacement windows, practically doubling the price. The quote for installing a 2700mm Catnic single leaf lintel is £434 (the new window quote is £498.) and the quote for installing 3 1500mm lintels is £1050. Are these the usual kind of prices I should expect to pay and are there any alternative i.e. cheaper options ?
