Hi Guys
A double glazing company has measured and manufactured 'J' shape bay (one large and two smaller windows) double glazing windows. The result is that the bay window is the wrong size, gap of 12cm, probably much more.
1)What the installer did in his first attempt was leave the window boards in place and try to install, as can be seen in Window1, there is a gap between the frame and the wall. He didn't even add 'knock on's'.
2)What the installer has done in his second attempt Window2 is add 'knock ons' and remove the window boards, move part of the frame forward to reduce the gap. They haven't been able to replace the original window boards, they took them away.
3)But this has created other issues. The finish between the frame, bay pole and beading has cavities (the bay pole is set back, but we've been told that it can be moved forwards) Window3. The vertical finishing strips haven't been installed.
4)Too much of the frame has been covered up by a finishing strip (the company has stated this is within their installation standards) Window4.
5)Original frame showing 'J' Shape bay window Window5.
We took pictures as the installation was in progress.
A couple of questions, what does the window board sit on? What joins the window frames together, the technical name?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
