Why FENSA?

Sash window draught proofing and sash window repairs

FENSA stands for the Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme. Following Government encouragement, FENSA has been set up by the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) and other industry bodies in response to Building Regulations for double glazing companies in England and Wales.

When replacing windows, doors and roof lights in dwellings in England and Wales, homeowners must comply with current thermal performance and Building Regulation standards and ensure they get a certificate from a Competent Person scheme such as FENSA or Local Authority Building Control. FENSA enables companies that install replacement windows and doors to self-certify compliance under these Building Regulations without the need for a separate assessment from Building Control.

FENSA obtains funds to supports its certification operations through a combination of membership fees and inspection fees. FENSA does not aim to accumulate or distribute any surpluses, but set its charges at levels appropriate to finance the continuing operation and expansion of its certification product, and to provide prudent reserves against contingencies.

Why FENSA?

An independent report commissioned by the Government found FENSA to be the most successful of all competent person schemes to date in the UK, across all industries. FENSA is the brand trusted by consumers, Local Authorities, industry and Government.

FENSA is the industry standard for replacement window and door installers self-certifying compliance with the building regulations.

Here is why you should look for the FENSA logo when having replacement windows and doors fitted in your property:
Save time and costs:

  • You do not have to register your window or door installation with the local authority yourself. Not only is the FENSA approach much faster and easier – it is likely to save you hundreds of pounds
  • Compliance with the Building Regulations without the added cost and time of arranging assessment by Building Control
  • If you own properties across different local authorities – for consistency of quality and price, you are able to use the same FENSA installer for all installations, as they can work in all Local Authority jurisdictions

What people say

These guys were quick, efficient and carried out an excellent job. Now the windows are all working properly and look excellent. Meridian also did a good job of clearing up and tidying after they had completed their work. I would highly recommend them and would be happy to employ them in the future.

Chris Knight

Louis and his team arrived on time and worked extremely hard over the 3 days, as arranged to recondition and draught-proof our 17 sash windows. They were all courteous, good humoured and professional and worked very well as a team.

Having our windows improved in this way has made a world of difference to our home,
