Building in Clevedon
Somerset's building stone varies widely: Bath stone in Bath, golden Ham stone around Yeovil, blue lias in villages on the Levels and Mendip stone in the north. Weston-super-Mare has Victorian villas and terraces, Taunton and Bridgwater have brick terraces and post-war estates, and new housing continues to spread around the larger towns.
The Somerset Levels are low and prone to flooding, coastal areas face Bristol Channel winds, and Exmoor is wet and exposed.
That variety is why a guide price for replacement windows in Clevedon is only a starting point; the survey shows what your particular property needs.
Do you need permission in Clevedon?
Each UK nation sets its own consent rules, and Clevedon is in England. What follows is a plain summary; we check the specifics for your property with the council before pricing anything.
Replacing windows and doors on a house is usually permitted development in England when the new ones look broadly similar to the old. Flats, listed buildings and homes covered by an Article 4 direction can need consent, and conservation areas may limit materials or styles.
Replacement windows and external doors must meet Building Regulations for energy efficiency, ventilation and, on upper floors, escape. The work is either self-certified by an installer registered with a competent person scheme or signed off by building control.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
From survey to handover
Free site survey
First, someone visits your home in Clevedon to see the space, take measurements and note anything that could affect the work, such as access or the condition of what is there. There is no charge for this visit.
Price and scope agreed
We turn the survey notes into a written quote. The price is fixed for the specification we agree, and the document sets out materials, scope and payment stages in plain language.
Booking the work
Preparation matters as much as the build. We agree access, parking and working hours with you, order materials in good time, and confirm any permissions so the job isn't held up once it starts.
On site to finish
During the work we protect the areas around it and tidy up at the end of each day. Once complete, we check the finish, remove our materials and hand over paperwork such as building control sign-off where it applies.
Why homeowners choose us
Replacement windows in Clevedon: questions
Is the price fixed?
Yes, for the specification we agree. Your written quote sets out exactly what is included at a fixed price. It only changes if you ask for something different, or if a problem the survey could not reasonably reveal later needs extra work. In either case we explain the change and confirm it in writing before going ahead.
What happens on the day the windows are fitted?
On fitting day we lay dust sheets, protect floors and furniture near each window, and then remove the old frame carefully to limit damage to plaster. The new frame is fixed, packed, sealed and glazed, and internal trims and external cills are finished. We take away the old windows and clean the glass before leaving. You only need to clear sills and take down curtains and blinds.
How much do replacement windows cost?
Replacement windows for a typical 3-bed semi cost £4,600–£9,200, depending on the number of windows, frame material and glazing. A single standard uPVC casement usually works out at roughly £500–£950 fitted, while aluminium, flush sash and sliding sash styles cost more. Bays, large panes and upstairs access add to the price. We measure every opening during the survey and give you a fixed price for the agreed specification.
Who do I deal with during the job?
One point of contact manages your project from survey to handover. They schedule the trades working under our contract, keep you updated on progress, and are the person to call with any question. You don't need to coordinate builders, electricians or decorators separately, because that is part of what we do.
Do I need planning permission for new windows?
Planning permission is not usually needed to replace windows with similar ones, but it depends on the size and style of the change, your home's location, whether it is listed or in a conservation area, and which UK nation you live in. Listed buildings normally need consent for any change, and some conservation areas restrict uPVC or new styles. Flats may also need the building owner's approval. We check the position for your property before quoting.
