Services
Secondary Glazing
Our secondary glazing systems provide discreet window upgrades that maintain original architecture while improving performance. Ideal for period properties, these solutions reduce noise transmission by up to 80% and enhance thermal efficiency through optimised cavity spacing. The unobtrusive design preserves visual aesthetics while delivering modern comfort standards.
Noise Reduction
Specialist noise mitigation systems address road traffic and commercial noise pollution. By combining 100mm+ cavity spacing with varied glass thicknesses, we achieve significant sound reduction. Acoustic laminated glass options further target high-frequency disturbances, creating quieter indoor environments for residential and commercial spaces.
Thermal Insulation
Enhanced thermal performance reduces heat loss through windows by up to 70%. Our systems incorporate low-emissivity glass that reflects interior heat while allowing solar gain. This dual-action approach lowers energy consumption and improves indoor comfort, particularly beneficial for older properties with single-glazed windows.
Period Property Solutions
Tailored window upgrades for conservation areas and listed buildings. Our non-invasive systems maintain original window structures while improving energy efficiency. The slim-profile designs remain virtually invisible externally, preserving historical integrity while meeting modern performance requirements without planning permission.
Energy Efficiency Upgrades
Compliant with Part L Building Regulations, our systems reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. By minimising heat loss and eliminating draughts, we help properties achieve better Energy Performance Certificates. The use of advanced glass technologies supports both cost savings and environmental sustainability goals.
Questions
What is secondary glazing?
Secondary glazing involves installing an additional window pane inside existing windows to improve insulation and noise reduction without replacing original frames.
How effective is noise reduction?
Our systems reduce road noise by 70-80% using optimised cavity spacing and specialist acoustic glass options for enhanced soundproofing performance.
What delivery timeframe should I expect?
Most orders are delivered within two weeks from placement, with manufacturing and installation timelines confirmed during initial consultations.
Can it help with energy efficiency?
Yes, our systems improve thermal efficiency by up to 70%, reducing heat loss and lowering energy bills while meeting current Building Regulations standards.
Is planning permission required?
Secondary glazing typically doesn't require planning permission, making it ideal for period properties and conservation areas where exterior changes are restricted.
What glass options are available?
We offer standard, low-e, and acoustic laminated glass in various thicknesses to optimise thermal performance and noise reduction for different environments.
