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.

What you can specify

Existing frames, handles and locks kept
Laminated inner pane for security
Obscure and decorative glass matched where possible
New sealed units made to measure
Security tape on externally beaded frames
Low-E glass, argon fill and warm-edge spacers

Rented homes with a few failed units
Windows with condensation between the panes
Units with blown seals in sunny elevations
Homes where frames are sound but glass is tired

Things to decide before you order

Unit thickness

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

Replace the frame instead

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

Rules that apply in England

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.

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.

Misted unit replacement with laminated glass in March: questions

Do you cover Wisbech as well as March?

Yes. As well as March, we can arrange surveys in nearby Wisbech, Peterborough and King's Lynn. Dates depend on installer availability.

Will the new unit match the others?

We match the size, spacer colour and glass as closely as we can, including common obscure patterns.

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.
