    I also had to catch their incorrect addition of trickle vents on everything.

    Why incorrect? They were required by building regs, they're now just 'guidance' but that's only because the fenestration industry (through FENSA) thew a wobbly and DCLG gave in.

    Are you sure you're not going to end up with unwanted condensation?

    I had the opposite - we almost ended up with no trickle vents for our non-opening double glazed windows in the bathroom and toilet. lol.

    I'm planning on building up the reveal to the glass with solid timber to give a frameless appearance, which would cover the trickle vents. They all open and have a lockable ventilation position thats 5mm at the bottom. Might end up with vents in the walls too.

    Ah thought you'd have it covered. Especially as the place had damp! Sounds good.
