Things to decide before you order

Energy specification

New low-E and argon units are usually warmer than the ones they replace.

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 Stamford Hill: questions

Can you survey in Stamford Hill and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Stamford Hill, Highbury and Tottenham are booked around installer availability.

Do I need a new window frame?

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

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.
