Most of them (if it's sealed unit double glazing you're having) are lifted in from outside though, so no real need to move furniture. It'll get pretty dusty though so you might wanna chuck sheets over stuff. Also whilst they can normally remove old windows intact sometimes they break when being pulled so you might want to be prepared for the odd bit of broken glass.If you've got dormers it's worth getting ready to clean out gutters, sweep down roofs etc. I am still finding bits of broken glass in gutters from when mine were done, and high winds blow the odd missed bit off the roof onto the garden.Only other thing i'd suggest is make sure the frames & surrounds on the inside are as clear and accessible as poss. Again if it's sealed units they will whip round & mastic them in. I had to do stuff i hadn't thought of like removing shower rails etc so they could get the mastic gun in.It's a bit of a pain, and won't be much fun if it's raining, but not too much hassle normally.</blockquote>
