We've just had 12 victorian sash windows by Scenic Glazing in our Herne Hill flat. Paul has been fantastic, from is immediate response to my initial enquiry through to the choosing of options, quotation and fitting done over the last three days.


They look fantastic, both inside and out. We were nervous about going for UPVC instead of timber but definitely made the right choice - they look very authentic, you literally cant tell the difference unless looking very closely. We did have a quote from Bespoke Dulwich (who were also excellent in their service) the but they were significantly more expensive for the same identical product.

I beg to differ, the plastic ones look like they have stuck-on glazing beads and they haven't even bothered to replicate the arched corners of each main sash panel. I much prefer the original timber windows downstairs and in the adjacent property...

Blimey, do people really, I mean REALLY think this clunky marketing guff floats?


Basically it says that if you don?t look to closely, we can convince you you?re getting the real thing.


I?m mouthing ?go away? from the other side of a sealed unit.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
