Measure dimensions of windows to ensure accuracy to specs
Accurately measure the dimensions of the windows to ensure they align with the provided specifications. Use appropriate measuring tools and techniques to gather precise measurements. Confirm that the measurements meet the required standards and tolerances. Document any deviations and communicate them for further evaluation or adjustment. Accurate measurements are crucial for proper window installation and overall aesthetic appeal.
Inspect the quality of the glass for any faults or impurities
Thoroughly inspect the quality of the glass used in the windows. Check for any faults, impurities, or deformities that may affect the visual clarity or structural integrity. Appraise the glass for any scratches, cracks, or chips that may compromise its functionality. Document any observed issues and communicate them for necessary actions. Ensuring high-quality glass enhances the overall appearance and longevity of the windows.
