ᐅ Window Installation in External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) – When Can the Window Installer Take Measurements?

Hello forum,

We are currently in the process of having a house built.

The shell is up, and the brick cladding is almost finished.

The house is built with sand-lime bricks, and in the upper third an external thermal insulation composite system (ETICS) with plaster will be applied, while the lower two-thirds are brick-clad.

I was told that the window installer can only take measurements once the brick cladding is completely finished.

Does the insulation and plaster on the upper section also need to be completed first, or can the windows be measured and installed beforehand?

Hello Basel,
I came across your post, and we are currently planning a house with about two-thirds brickwork and one-third plastered surfaces.
I would be very grateful if you could share some pictures with me!

Best regards
