Fitting in Cramlington and nearby
Cramlington is about 7 miles from Morpeth, the main centre for Northumberland. We can survey and fit across the NE23 district and in nearby places such as Blyth and Ashington.
Northumberland is mostly rural, with stone market towns such as Hexham, Alnwick and Morpeth, former mining towns like Ashington and Blyth, and coastal villages open to North Sea winds.
This glazing suits:
- Ground-floor windows at the back of the house
- Bungalows, where every window is at ground level
- Windows beside flat roofs, porches and extensions
- Flats on walkways and balconies
Questions we will ask at the survey
Beads inside or out
Externally beaded windows can have the glass removed from outside. We fit security tape or clips so that route is closed.
Laminated inner or both panes
A laminated inner pane suits most homes. Laminating both panes adds protection on hidden elevations.
Building regulations and safety in England
Replacing glass in an existing frame
Replacing only the glass or sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair in England rather than notifiable building work. Replacing a whole window or door is notifiable and is normally certified through a competent person scheme or approved by building control. Either way, new glass in a critical location should still be safety glass.
Windows needed for escape
Approved Document B expects many habitable rooms in houses, particularly upstairs, to have an escape window with a clear opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. Changing the glass does not alter that, but locks, secondary glazing and film must not stop the window opening. Laminated glass is hard to break through, so escape always relies on the window opening.

Which areas near Cramlington do you cover?

Will security glass make my home warmer or colder?
Choosing low-E glass, argon fill and warm-edge spacers usually matches or beats older units, so most people notice no change or an improvement.

No. If your frames are in good condition, we replace just the glass with laminated units made to fit them.
