Im ordering a thermal one to go over an old sash window. Theres one already there. I have no tools really. Ive been quoted £40 to fit it. How difficult is it and what tools will i need?

I don't know as I've never tried! DH has fitted a few that included cutting them to size as they were bought in standard sizes at DIY shop. Didn't seem to take him too long to fit them.
However, the last 2 we bought we had measured, made and fitted by a local firm. They were £60 each including the chap calling round to measure them, make them and then fit them once they were made. It took him about 5 minutes to do each one!

I did my kitchen one a few months ago. Needed electric drill, tape measure and a screwdriver. It's not difficult, the hardest bit was getting the measurements bang on.
