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.
What you can specify
- Old units removed and disposed of
- Existing frames, handles and locks kept
- Security tape on externally beaded frames
- Obscure and decorative glass matched where possible
- Toughened panes where safety glass is required
- Laminated inner pane for security
Fitting in Horsham and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting in Horsham and across the RH12 postcode district, as well as in nearby Crawley (7 miles) and Horley (11 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
West Sussex includes Chichester's Georgian city centre, the seaside towns of Worthing and Bognor Regis, Crawley's new-town centre and business parks, and Horsham's market-town streets.
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
Unit thickness
We match the overall thickness to your frame so the beads fit properly.
Replace the frame instead
If frames are rotten, warped or very old, new windows may be better value. We will tell you honestly.
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 Horsham: questions
Do you cover Crawley as well as Horsham?
Yes. As well as Horsham, we can arrange surveys in nearby Crawley, Horley and Haywards Heath. 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.
