PH Massive....... Help Required

I've bought a couple of UPVC doors from an online company, in the naive assumption that I could call a local UPVC company and have them fitted.
How wrong could I be..... no interest in fitting doors that they haven't supplied.

Anyone know an installer in the Bristol area who will install doors that they haven't supplied?

Most DG companies use sub contractors for fitting, maybe if you phrased the question thus "Who do you use to fit your windows and may I have their number please?" you might get some help. Many of the National companies are reluctant to do one off doors and windows because of the disproportionate cost of a sub to fit just one item. There will be a per item cost, but the minimum cost may well be a full days labour.

For info, we charge £89 for a window, and £150 for a door. But can fit 4 x wins and 1 x door in a day, the daily rate is £291. That is pretty expensive by the way, but they are our own fully employed fitters, window monkeys as used by certain well known Nationals will be cheaper.

No, we wont come to Bristol
