uPVC windows in Glasgow - what is and is not allowed
Glasgow is sandstone tenement country in the West End and Southside, and a large number of those blocks are B-listed or sit in a conservation area, which usually rules out uPVC on the street elevation - timber sash-and-case is the compliant route there. Where uPVC does work well is the interwar semis of Bearsden, Cardonald and Knightswood, and the postwar stock across the outer schemes.

Frequently asked questions
Can I fit uPVC windows in a Glasgow tenement? On a B-listed block or in a conservation area, usually not on the street elevation - Listed Building Consent is required and uPVC is rarely approved. Rear elevations are sometimes more flexible. We can match you with a timber sash-and-case specialist where that is the compliant route.
How much do uPVC windows cost in Glasgow? Typically £308 to £792 per window fitted, using the Scotland regional factor of 0.88x the national average - for the suburban and postwar stock where uPVC is permitted.
Do trickle vents apply in Scotland? Scottish Building Standards require background ventilation on replacement windows; your installer should confirm the approach for your property.
