Understand the scope.
Ask for the selected garden-window dimensions, support arrangement and shelf configuration to be confirmed for the opening. Have the provider explain the proposed treatment of the top, sides and sill, and identify interior and exterior finishing work. Confirm which existing elements will remain and how any additional opening repair would be documented.
What may be involved
- garden window unit

Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.
LOCAL RESEARCH / Gilroy
Planning your work
Gilroy states that a permit is required for projects such as new construction, additions, remodeling, repairs and extensions to electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems, and its published examples include window replacements, sliding doors, skylights, garage conversions, furnace and water heater replacements, and fireplaces and fireplace inserts. It asks anyone in doubt to call the building division. Confirm the address, the proposed scope and which permits apply with the City of Gilroy before work starts. This reference concerns the City of Gilroy; it does not establish requirements for a neighbouring jurisdiction or for an individual property.
