Building Control
Do I need building regulations approval for replacement windows?
All replacement windows must comply with the building regulations. When you sell your property, your purchaser's surveyors will ask for evidence that any replacement glazing installed after April 2002 complies with the building regulations. There are two ways to prove compliance:
A certificate showing that the work has been done by a FENSA, CERTASS or BSI registered installer.
A certificate from us saying that installation has approval under the building regulations.
More details can be found on our guidance note for replacement windows page
