Secondary Glazing
Our secondary glazing systems provide an unobtrusive solution for improving window performance. By installing an additional internal window pane, we enhance thermal insulation, reduce energy costs, and minimise noise intrusion. This method preserves original windows while meeting modern efficiency standards, making it ideal for period properties and listed buildings.
Noise Insulation
We specialise in acoustic insulation solutions that reduce external noise by up to 80%. By creating a 100mm cavity between panes and using varied glass thicknesses, our systems effectively dampen road traffic and environmental sounds. Acoustic laminated glass further improves performance for high-frequency noise sources like aircraft.
Thermal Efficiency
Our glazing solutions significantly reduce heat loss through windows. Using Pilkington K Low-e glass, we reflect internal heat back into buildings while allowing solar warmth to pass through. This dual action lowers heating bills, reduces condensation, and helps properties achieve Energy Performance Certificate compliance.
Acoustic Glass
We offer specialist acoustic laminated glass with interlayers that absorb sound vibrations. This solution targets high-frequency noise pollution from urban environments. The glass combines safety features with superior sound insulation, making it suitable for properties near busy roads or commercial areas.
Period Property Solutions
Our discreet secondary glazing preserves historical window designs while improving performance. The systems are invisible from the exterior and maintain original architectural details. This approach allows property owners to enhance comfort and efficiency without compromising conservation area requirements or listed building status.
Questions
What is secondary glazing?
Secondary glazing involves installing an additional internal window pane to improve thermal efficiency, reduce noise, and enhance security without replacing existing windows.
How does secondary glazing reduce noise?
By creating a 100mm cavity between panes and using varied glass thicknesses, our systems disrupt sound wave transmission, reducing road noise by 70-80%.
Can secondary glazing improve energy efficiency?
Yes, our glazing solutions reduce heat loss by up to 50%, lower condensation, and help properties meet Part L Building Regulations for energy performance.
Is secondary glazing suitable for listed buildings?
Yes, our discreet systems preserve original windows and architectural details, making them ideal for period properties and conservation areas.
How long does delivery take?
We aim to deliver products within approximately 2 weeks of order confirmation, ensuring minimal disruption to clients.
What glass options are available?
We offer standard clear glass, Pilkington K Low-e glass for thermal efficiency, and acoustic laminated glass for enhanced noise reduction.
