On 1990s flats: uPVC like-for-like at the bottom of the market, A-rated timber-look composite for owners staying long-term. Prices from £545 per window. Call 0800 193 1505.
Craigleith is a mix of late Victorian tenements with standard 2-over-2 sashes, 1930s semis with casement windows in steel or timber, and 1990s+ apartments with uPVC stock now coming up for replacement. Each archetype needs a different specification.
Most of Craigleith is outside any conservation area, so window replacement is usually permitted development needing no planning permission. Building warrant required for any change to the structural opening size. Tenement flats need factor consent.

Listed-building paperwork sorted for us, original sashes saved, and the front room is no longer a wind tunnel. Brilliant from quote to completion.
