craig Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 The problem is everyone lumps the m2 price for every item, including sliding doors / lift & slide doors, entrance doors e.t.c. Not everyone has the same products or doors for example and over inflates the m2 price for comparisons. It is a good baseline but it’s not perfect.

kxi Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Here's a list of prices compiled from BH public posting https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10mPQ-4HnTuUbiKmQVn3fPPoVkxDMPgRFNvaji4R8USg/edit?usp=sharing Apologies anyone if I've made a mistake on your prices or missed you out. I wasn't hugely systematic. I'm surprised not to see any Green Building Store ones. As @craig says, a simple m2 hides a lot of detail that affects price e.g. ratio of fixed vs opening windows, doors, cills, coated glass, non-rectangular, airtightness level of the model, etc. I suspect the mysterious discount factor also distorts things. @lizzie I'd previously had you at £390/m2 - was that just for alu UPVC and you went for alu timber at £566/m2 in the end?

Russell griffiths Posted July 16, 2019 Author Share Posted July 16, 2019 Thank you all, @PeterW how do you like your 3G upvc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterW Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 @Russell griffiths it is very good. Site near noise and whilst it’s not the optimal 44mm stuff (40mm units from memory) it is certainly warm and quiet. This was based on some “usual” designs too - everything is tilt and turn so opens inward, and the big 1800x1100 windows have T&T on the centre panel of three panels only. With MVHR you don’t open windows that often ..!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rationel seem to be hitting the right balance for quality and price for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
