    Check adverts and donedeal.
    I sold a full house worth for €500 during the summer.

    Also worth buying the windows before you make the opening as you may not get an exact match.

    Realise that they may look a bit rough.

    Will they comply with current standards?

    They may not have to comply with current standards of replacing like for like but as you say, you cannot make the situation worse.

    Make sure escape widths are there if required.

    Should replacement windows comply with current regs?

    My personal opinion is yes. With regards to opening sections for escape etc
    But, I think the regs allow for like for like replacements. Or, don’t make them any worse!
