Urgent - Any pro upvc window fitters here in central belt Scotland?

[Pord67]

Bit of an unorthodox request, but here goes. I'm looking for a professional upvc window and door fitter with experience of Compriband (and an open and adventurous attitude...!) We're currently self-building a strawbale house near Aberfoyle and have 3 sets of French doors and 4 windows to order and install.  I need someone to 

 

- double-check dimensions

- advise on pre-installation preparation

- install at least one window and door so I can see in detail how it's done

- generally act as 'consultant ', ie hold my hand...

 

We've gone through the pre-order process with Colin's Sash Windows (Spectus units) and need to get the order placed and installed asap.

 

Anyone willing and able?

Strawbales and Upvc?! interesting combo...

 

What is your window detail in the strawbale? is there a deep recess? do you box it out in timber first?

 

I'm going to suggest you won't find anyone who is experienced in this type of install so it's probably useful if you have details of how the windows should be done to discuss with a fitter

on the straw bale builds I have been on a timber frame was used for both doors and windows and don’t see any other “solid” solution.
