We are building a front wall which is to have a window in it, and have been thinking about which double-glazing company to go to for the window or maybe to fit it ourselves. We have had trouble getting a quote from some companies.
One company was perfectly fine, my Dad went to the showroom and gave them the specifications and they looked up on their computer and gave a price.
However, two door-to-door companies have said that they will only give a quote if both home-owners are present. The latter sales representative even said that it was the law that both should be present when the quote is given. This sounds quite suspicious. I understand that to make a contract to do the work would require both my Mum and Dad to be present. Why, I wonder, should both have to be present before a quote can be given? Is this really the law?
