Rules for flats and apartments in Scotland
Scotland requires replacement windows to achieve 1.6 W/m²K, which good triple glazing passes comfortably. Replacing a window or door, frame and all, does not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards.
Before ordering: Since May 2024, replacement windows on houses are widely permitted development, including in many conservation areas, with front elevations expected to match the existing closely; your council tells you if prior notification applies. Flats outside conservation areas generally need permission only if the opening size changes. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
How it works
After the free survey you get a written quote naming the frame system, the glass build-up and the whole-window U-value for every item. Windows are made to order, then fitted, sealed and made good, one opening at a time.

Questions from Forfar
What about tall blocks?
Higher-risk buildings (18 m or 7 storeys and over in England) have extra building safety requirements. Talk to your building’s accountable person first.
Do I need permission to replace windows in my flat?
Often, yes. In England and Wales flats have no householder permitted development rights, so check with the council; in Scotland permission is generally needed only if the opening size changes or the flat is in a conservation area; in Northern Ireland ask your council. Separately, check your lease (England, Wales and Northern Ireland) or title deeds and factor (Scotland).
