Misted unit replacement means swapping a double-glazed unit whose seal has failed, so moisture has got between the panes, for a new sealed unit. Doing it with a laminated pane turns a routine repair into a security upgrade for little extra cost.

Bristol's glazing ranges from Georgian sash windows in Clifton and Kingsdown to Victorian bay fronts in Bedminster and modern glazed offices around Temple Quarter and the harbourside.

This glazing suits:

Door glass that has gone cloudy
Homes where frames are sound but glass is tired
Units with blown seals in sunny elevations
Rented homes with a few failed units

Questions we will ask at the survey

Replace the frame instead

If frames are rotten, warped or very old, new windows may be better value. We will tell you honestly.

Unit thickness

We match the overall thickness to your frame so the beads fit properly.

Building regulations and safety in England

England

Security rules for new homes

Approved Document Q has applied to new homes in England since 1 October 2015. Easily accessible doors and windows, meaning any part within 2 m vertically of the ground or another accessible surface, should meet PAS 24 or an equivalent, and glazing in doors and in windows within 400 mm of a door should be laminated to at least BS EN 356 P1A. It does not apply when you change the glass in an existing home, although it is a sensible benchmark.

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.

Misted unit replacement with laminated glass in Bristol: questions

Which parts in Bristol do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Bristol, including Clifton, Bedminster, Easton, Fishponds and Southville.

Does replacing a unit need building regulations approval?

Replacing glass or a sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair rather than new building work, across the UK. Replacing the whole window is different and is controlled.

Do I need a new window frame?

No, if the frame is sound. We replace only the sealed unit.

Why is there condensation between my window panes?

The seal around the unit has failed, letting damp air into the gap. The only lasting fix is a new unit.
