Understand the visible window and door risks before buying or completing.
DMR provides a focused review of accessible windows and doors to identify visible defects, operational concerns and signs that further investigation or expenditure may be required.
Starting from £450 + VAT
A specialist review alongside the wider property process
Existing properties
Review visible condition, operation, glazing, seals, finishes and signs of poor installation or deterioration.
New-build snagging
Identify adjustment, finishing, glazing and installation issues before final sign-off where access allows.
Extensions and refurbishments
Check whether recently installed products show obvious defects or specification concerns.
Risk prioritisation
Distinguish minor maintenance items from issues that may justify documents, quotations or further investigation.
Scope and limitations
Focused on windows and doors only.
This service complements, rather than replaces, a general building survey. It does not assess unrelated parts of the building and is normally visual and non-destructive.
- AccessOnly safely accessible products and components can be inspected.
- DocumentsPlanning, guarantee, specification or certification checks require the relevant documents to be supplied.
- Future performanceThe inspection records present visible condition and cannot guarantee future service life.
Finding a concern before exchange or completion gives you time to ask better questions.
Where a significant issue is identified, DMR can recommend whether quotations, certificates or further technical investigation should be requested.
Next step
