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.
Glass and fitting options
- Toughened panes where safety glass is required
- New sealed units made to measure
- Security tape on externally beaded frames
- Laminated inner pane for security
- Obscure and decorative glass matched where possible
- Old units removed and disposed of

- Units with blown seals in sunny elevations
- Door glass that has gone cloudy
- Homes where frames are sound but glass is tired
- Rented homes with a few failed units
Things to decide before you order
Unit thickness
We match the overall thickness to your frame so the beads fit properly.
Laminated or standard
A laminated inner pane adds security for a small extra cost while the unit is being made.
Rules that apply in Wales
Replacing glass in an existing frame
Welsh Government guidance says building regulations have applied to replacement glazing since 1 April 2002, which covers replacing windows and doors. Swapping only the glass or a sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair. New glass in a critical location should still be safety glass, and the council's building control team can confirm anything unclear.
Safety glass in critical locations
In Wales, safety glazing is covered by Approved Document N (glazing) under the Welsh Building Regulations rather than Approved Document K. Glass in doors up to 1,500 mm above the floor, in panes within 300 mm of a door up to 1,500 mm, and in other glazing below 800 mm should be safety glass or protected. Laminated and toughened glass are the usual choices.

Misted unit replacement with laminated glass in Newtown: questions
Do you cover Welshpool as well as Newtown?
Yes. As well as Newtown, we can arrange work in nearby Welshpool. 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.
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.
