In need of a bit of advice, if anyone can help? We are selling our house. Our double glazing is well maintained and working just fine, not blown etc. but old (about 17 plus years) it was here when we moved in. Buyers made offer knowing this. Now they are saying that surveyor has told them windows do not meet new regs. They need to open fully to be used as means of escape! They are hinting for me to get the whole lot replaced and that I can't sell house with older windows ?!! They made their offer knowing the age of the windows (I told them). I know that I cant produce FENSA certificate as windows pre-date these being issued. They are talking about indemnity insurance now? I thought indemnity was just to cover building work I'd had done, or lack of planning permission etc. ? Is it appropriate in this case?
