Self Survey Guide

For quotation purposes; accurate measurement (manufacturing sizes) are not required. Simply measure the window aperture from the inside of each room, taking the height between the head and sill of the window or door and the width between the side reveals. As long as given measurements are within 100mm (4 inches) of the subsequent manufactured size, the price is unaffected. Any more or less than this allowance will have a small impact on the price.

Window and door style sheets should be used to take notes on styles and sizes required per room location. These printable sheets are available here.


For manufactured size purposes; accurate measurement is required, including gap allowance, as these sizes will be used to manufacture your windows and doors. If you decide to take on the process of “self-survey”, you will be responsible for any mis-measures and subsequent additional costs. Regular “flat” windows and doors are generally straightforward to measure and the following guide is designed to assist you through this process. However, Bay Window arrangements can be particularly difficult to survey. Whilst we are happy to accept Self-Surveys for Bay Windows, using the survey sheet print-outs, we would encourage customers to take advantage of our low-cost Pro-Survey service for all projects involving Bay Windows.

Additional Self-Survey assistance can be found in the Technical Guide, which shows typical frame positions to house walling, sub-sill, head and sealants.

Our service includes a professional survey service at the fixed price of £100.00 including VAT, payable directly to our nominated Surveyor. Our Surveyors are fully trained and we are fully responsible for the accuracy and specification of the survey, should you choose to use this service.
