Getting the right glass for your building

Laminated or standard

A laminated inner pane adds security for a small extra cost while the unit is being made.

Replace the frame instead

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

What the rules say in Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland

Security rules for new homes

If you are building a new home in Northern Ireland, ask the council's building control service which security requirements apply. In existing homes nothing obliges you to upgrade glass, but laminated glass to BS EN 356 P1A in doors and in windows beside them is a common benchmark taken from guidance in Great Britain.

Replacing glass in an existing frame

Building regulations in Northern Ireland are administered by the eleven councils' building control services. Replacing only the glass in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair, while replacing whole windows or doors can be controlled work, so check with building control first. New glass in a critical location should be safety glass under Part V.

Misted unit replacement with laminated glass in Belfast: questions

Can you survey in Belfast and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Belfast, Newtownabbey and Holywood are booked around installer availability.

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.

Can misted glass be repaired instead of replaced?

Some services drill and dry units, but the seal stays broken and insulation is not restored. A new unit is the reliable fix.

Do I need a new window frame?

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