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.
Choices you can make
- New sealed units made to measure
- Security tape on externally beaded frames
- Low-E glass, argon fill and warm-edge spacers
- Old units removed and disposed of
- Existing frames, handles and locks kept
- Laminated inner pane for security

Somerset's glazing runs from the Georgian sashes of Bath, a World Heritage city, to the town-centre shops of Taunton and Yeovil and the seafront at Weston-super-Mare.
This glazing suits:
- Units with blown seals in sunny elevations
- Windows with condensation between the panes
- Door glass that has gone cloudy
- Homes where frames are sound but glass is tired
Questions we will ask at the survey
Replace the frame instead
If frames are rotten, warped or very old, new windows may be better value. We will tell you honestly.
Energy specification
New low-E and argon units are usually warmer than the ones they replace.
Building regulations and safety 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 Frome: questions
Which areas near Frome do you cover?
We can arrange work in Frome and in nearby Warminster (6 miles), Trowbridge (8 miles) and Bath (10 miles). 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.
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.
