I think the shop is called Techmar? it is next to the Food Lodge on the main road . Very good and very reasonable.

I would highly recommend a company called Dogupen. They are in Karaoglanolu industrial estate. Quality windows and best prices. English speaking

I think it is called TescoMar but it is next to The Food Lodge in Catalkoy. They did our patio doors and we are very pleased with them and their service.

Hi Gerry

Yes we have had a lot of double glazed panels replaced by TescoMar over the last few years and all have been OK, had patio doors replaced which were not great but ok

We second this recommendation, consider reflective glass too if the window is one that gets a lot of sun.

Good point. We didn't do that and then paid to have it tinted. Doh!

TBH, the reflective glass was very reasonable cost addition and apart from reducing the heat in our south facing kitchen, it affords a great deal of privacy.... you simply can't see in!

I never even gave it a thought. It was a patio door that was blown and was replaced under warranty so maybe the extra cost wouldn't have been covered but I certainly would have paid the extra had I known.

The film we have wasn't that expensive and certainly cuts down the heat to some extent. You cannot see in unless there is a light source in the other end of the room which we need to remember in the bedroom!
