Winter light and glass choice in Dundee

On the shortest day, Dundee gets about 6 h 50 min of daylight and the midday sun reaches only about 10° above the horizon. Low winter sun means north-facing rooms here gain little solar heat, which is where triple glazing’s lower heat loss helps most.

Rules for new builds and self-builds in Scotland

For a new home in Scotland, windows and doors are part of the building warrant for the build: they must average 1.6 W/m²K across all windows, doors and rooflights, with no single unit worse than 3.3. The house itself needs planning permission.

VAT: supply and fitting by a VAT-registered contractor in the construction of a new home is normally zero-rated, so new-build guide prices are shown without VAT; supply-only purchases carry 20% VAT, which self-builders can usually reclaim through HMRC’s DIY housebuilders scheme.

How it works

The surveyor measures every opening, checks ventilation, escape windows and safety-glass zones, and talks through styles. Your written quote lists each item with its glass build-up and U-value, and the price is fixed for that specification.

  • Free survey and a written quote fixed for the specification
  • Glass build-up and whole-window U-value on every quote
  • Written handover pack at the end of the job
  • Guarantees on frames, units and fitting in writing
