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.

Fitting in Great Yarmouth and nearby
Great Yarmouth is about 18 miles from Norwich, the main centre for Norfolk. We can survey and fit across the NR30 district and in nearby places such as Lowestoft and Norwich.
Norfolk centres on Norwich's medieval lanes and listed shopfronts, with flint-built market towns, Georgian King's Lynn and seaside Great Yarmouth and Cromer facing the North Sea.
Typical settings for misted unit replacement with laminated glass:
- Windows with condensation between the panes
- Rented homes with a few failed units
- Units with blown seals in sunny elevations
- Homes where frames are sound but glass is tired
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.
Unit thickness
We match the overall thickness to your frame so the beads fit properly.
What the rules say in 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 Great Yarmouth: questions
Which areas near Great Yarmouth do you cover?
We can arrange work in Great Yarmouth and in nearby Lowestoft (9 miles), Norwich (18 miles) and North Walsham (21 miles). Dates depend on 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.
Will the new unit match the others?
We match the size, spacer colour and glass as closely as we can, including common obscure patterns.
Do I need a new window frame?
No, if the frame is sound. We replace only the sealed unit.
