Ok, so we moved into our new place a couple of weeks ago. First on the list was to replace the bay windows because they were sealed/painted shut, only single glazed and generally crap. Long story short, we've had them measured, they're now on order and will be installed in 8-10 weeks.
So, the guy mentioned this, but it's just sunk in that they will be removing the entire frame (back to the brick) and our flippin' phone line has been drilled through this. So the internet and phone will presumably just stop working. Great.

Not sure if this is a thread for the Home & Garden forum but what's the best course of action here? The window people aren't going to be interested in drilling the cables through the wall properly.
I'm on a Sky staff account. Is it worth contacting them first? Will they be interested? Will they escalate to Openreach? Presumably they'd only do that once it stops working right? Then charge us £200 odd? Will Openreach drill through the wall and do it properly?
Or should we find a proper cabling company that does network/TV/satellite etc.?
It's annoying because we're doing major renovations to the house next year and I'm sure this could be done by that contractor (they've already mentioned tidying existing Sky cables which were chucked over the roof) but obviously we can't go without internet etc. until then!
