Hi there, I need to get a replacement zip-in window fitted; wondered if anyone has any recommendations for the best quality plastic/suppliers/fitters? Looking for company to do the work in south east London, but the main thing is the quality of the product, and I could go further afield.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Phoning around it seems 40-thou PVC is the standard material - unless anyone knows of a 'premium' PVC that may be more robust/scratch resistant?

I've bought kits from emiata.com in the US. They're good quality and not too expensive. Worth checking for price and availability.
