Bay window quotes for Dundee period homes
Dundee’s Victorian sandstone tenements in Broughty Ferry and the West End often carry projecting bays with sash-and-case windows. Interwar semis in Barnhill and along Ferry Road feature 1930s canted or square bays. Both need structural inspection during replacement, and our comparison service prioritises installers who understand sandstone lintels and solid-wall construction.

Frequently asked questions
Do sandstone bays need special structural inspection? Yes. Sandstone solid-wall construction has no cavity, and lintels are often stone slabs that need careful inspection during frame replacement. A good installer surveys head plate and corner posts before quoting rather than assuming.
Can I keep the original sandstone mullions? Usually yes. A sympathetic replacement fits the new frame inside the existing masonry opening, retaining stone cills and mullions where structurally sound. This is common practice in Broughty Ferry and West End conservation areas.
How long does a bay replacement take? A typical projecting or canted bay is fitted in one to two days once made to measure. Lead times from survey to install run four to seven weeks. Scaffolding is normally needed only if the bay carries a first-floor structure above.
