Double Glazing Prices

Installing Double Glazing is one of the biggest investments you may make to your property, so naturally, you want it to last as long as possible. However, some replacement windows and doors can start presenting major problems after just a few years. This is an expense that you do not want to be paying for on a regular basis.

Weather conditions and ultraviolet radiation both play a factor in the lifespan of your windows. Signs of window degradation include discolouring, brittle frame seals, corroded metal components, and gaps in the seals. If the internal reinforcement is inadequate, the result could be sagging over time which will result in leaks & draughts.

All of our windows have a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee but are expected to last much longer

With soaring energy prices it’s important to know that, on average, 20% of the heat lost in your home is through the windows. Many double glazing companies will use cheaper glass that has much lower thermal properties, if a cheaper grade of UPVC & other components is also used it could have a massive effect on the energy efficiency of the window.

High-quality, A-Rated double glazing will save you up to 35% on your energy costs and evidence of energy rating should be sought as part of your double glazing quote process.

Protecting your home and family is one of the top priorities when installing new double glazing. it is important to consider how secure your new windows are:

How easy can the glass be broken?   Can it be removed altogether from the outside? Does the hardware carry any accreditations?

Cheap double glazing may not be internally beaded, may utilise lower quality glass which can be easily broken and have poor quality locking systems which won’t secure your property efficiently.

Our windows come complete with high security locking systems as standard using the leading hardware in the country, Tested to 1000 cycles and fully guaranteed & accredited.

We can even offer an additional ‘security guarantee’ with extra guarantees such as free replacement products and compensation

It is important that you get trained professionals to install your double glazing. One of the most common complaints with cheaper window installations is that window frames don’t fit properly. This is ‘remedied’ by using extra plastic trims around the edges, which leaves your property partly open to the elements.

Another issue is that the window frame is not sealed properly. The long-term result of which is that your window will leak and could also create damp problems.

The above problems can usually occur when your double glazing company use under qualified, sub-contractors to fit their windows for them. They are often poorly paid and care little for the reputation of the company that is paying them.

All our windows are fitted by experienced professionals with many years of successful double-glazing installations and are all employed directly by us – we do not use sub-contractors.
