If the person working on your home has the proper tools and training then this prep work should go rather smoothly.

You probably have taken a lot of time to determine how the garden window will look from the inside of your home. But have you taken the proper time to go outside and get a sense of how it looks from this perspective?

You don't need them banging into your new home edition. Moreover, you'll want to be sure that the garden window looks just as natural on the outside as it does from the inside of your home.

Last of all, it's critical that you are 100% happy with your completed project. If your contractor is concerned with his reputation and customer satisfaction, he should have no issues in coming to your home to examine any problems you might be having.
