Nordvest windows - Looking for any info please

[Ola]

Hi

Has anyone on the forum used Nordvest windows? They are made in Norway and have a hub in Perth. However, I can't really find much about them online. We have a self-build project running at West Coast of Scotland and received a reasonable 3g Alu-clad quotation from them (also had quotes from Rationel and NorDan but higher). Any experience with the Nordvest, please share. Thanks

Hi Ola

A bit late I suspect, but I ordered Nordvest windows and doors last year, after a toss up between Nordvest and Rationel, almost same price point to be honest, but the chap in Perth won me over. I have triple glazed everything with Alu cladding. The windows and doors are good, but a word of caution, the majority of mine had issues with the Alu cladding not meeting at the mitres, which was fixed where possible by the Perth office contractor (I'm in Inverness) albeit some just will not meet, which results in the bright galvanised fixing plates being seen through the gaps. The worse issue I had/have is that one of my frames paint started to bubble up, instead of replacing the frame straight away they have tried to repair, but this too blistered up, they are now going to attempt another repair. The guy in Perth is great but the Norwegian factory management staff have basically ignored me, despite my best efforts to have a meaningful conversation with them about the issues. Its a shame because the windows could be fantastic, they are solid and I have no doubt will last for years, but the after sales customer ethos in Norway is very poor.
