So just had some windows put in.... And need some peoples thoughts on it.

Wouldn't you cut with the angle as you can see the length changes as you go futher along

I can't remember what tool you would use been a very long time since wood work for me wouldn't you just use a protractor? Is it?

most cuts have this issue. The bad cuts was then just covered over with a chunk of Sealent.

If someone im the trade could let me know I'm not just being a perfectionist dxxx I'm pretty sure the cuts should be a lot nicer and neater.

You can see from the last 2 pic.. Not mine windows but communal so none of my business but to show you a comparison as I've stripped most of my sealant out to re do myself on mine.

The same thing you can see the massive amounts of Sealent beacuse the cut are too short ( they went straight instead of in then straight if you you know what I mean)

The last 2 pics mentioned in above post if any are in the trade could let me know?

what they should have done here is is either change the order they put them up... Say for example the side trim first then the top trim cut to size or just cut out for the side panel trim to fit in.

Is this a rented property e.g. apartment/flat where all the windows are being replaced in the block? Yes, the work looks pretty shocking. Is there not a building manager or someone (e.g. local council) you can raise your concerns with?
