    My wife and I have recently gone sale agreed on a house. It needs some work before we can move in; new windows, insulation (wall and ceiling), new heating system and new floors. We've gotten quotes for most things at this point, but what I'm initially looking for is feedback on windows.

    In terms of windows, we've gotten quotes from 3 different suppliers: Senator, Walsh and Munster Joinery. The prices range from €11,150 to €6,900 all for white uPVC, which is obviously a huge difference. I'd love to get feedback on peoples experience with the groups I mentioned (if that needs to be through PM, that's fine too). I'd also like to know if there's anything I can do to ensure a decent standard of after-sales care. Is there anything in particular I should look out for when these are being fitted.

    All feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Mod Note: The problem is that we cannot get into a situation on this forum where people are suggesting to use A over B and don't touch C with a barge pole! It is, basically, advertising and/or in the past it has been found that some people/posters may have a vested interest in poo pooing another companies product! That's why we cannot allow open debate on the matter.

    You get what you pay for. Always good advice that.
