Bolgers are Ventrolla
I’ll give you a quote pm me
I’m well aware of who Bolgers/Ventrolla are and having seen some of their work I have to say as a seasoned craftsman/ window restorer I’m not impressed.
I even understand they now use plastic parting beads, I would have thought the bigwigs in Bolgers should know that plastic expands at a far greater rate than wood and will cause it to split.
If your quote for getting the windows draught-proofed using wooden parting beads and wooden staff beads (matched to the originals), using the best of fittings, re-balanced, and a totally smooth operation is more than €800 then thanks but no thanks.
I’ll just have to keep on doing it for my customers like I always do.

There is a great Sash Window company called WJ Bolger Conservation in Ardee St. Dublin 8. These guys make and restore all the old Sash windows. info@wjbolger.ie
My understanding is that almost 100% of Bolgers work is now tear out the old windows and make new ones to suit.

As a new poster to this site and someone who simply detests uPVC I simply have to send an e-mail to that Counciller (normally I spell councillor with a small ‘c’ but I think he deserves a capital ‘C’), applauding his stance regarding uPVC.
SOS
Having re-read the news article I see the councilor is in fact a woman.
Sincere apologies to Collette.
