One of the most common questions we’re asked is, “Are you FENSA registered?” — and with good reason. When investing in new windows or doors for your home, it’s essential to feel confident that the work is not only high quality but also compliant with UK building regulations.
At Hastings Windows, we are fully FENSA registered, which means every installation we carry out meets the latest building regulations for energy efficiency, ventilation, and structural integrity. After your installation is complete, you’ll receive a FENSA certificate directly from the organisation, usually within four weeks. This certificate provides peace of mind that your installation is legal and compliant — and it will be needed if you ever decide to sell your property.
What is FENSA?
FENSA (Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme) was established by the Glass and Glazing Federation with government backing. Its purpose is to ensure that window and door installers across England and Wales meet the current building standards, without requiring homeowners to arrange separate inspections from local building control.
For homeowners, this means:
- No hassle – FENSA takes care of registering the work with your local authority.
- Proof of compliance – Your certificate acts as evidence that the installation meets required standards.
- Future security – If you sell your home, you won’t be held up by missing paperwork.
