Note: From April 2002, all replacement glazing came within the scope of the Building Regulations. From then on, anyone who
installs replacement windows or doors has to comply with strict thermal performance standards.
One of the main reasons for the change is the need to reduce energy loss. The Building Regulations have controlled glazing
in new buildings for many years, but they represent only a very small percentage of our total building stock. It is also
essential to improve the performance of the much larger numbers of existing buildings if we are to meet increasingly
stringent national and global energy saving targets.
When the time comes to sell your property, your purchaser's surveyors will ask for evidence that any replacement glazing
installed after April 2002 complies with the new Building Regulations. There will be two ways to prove compliance:
- A certificate showing that a FENSA registered installer has done the work.
- A certificate from the local authority saying that the installation has approval under the Building Regulations.
