With the need for improved thermal efficiency and reduced energy costs, it is becoming commonplace for new homes to have double-glazed doors and windows.
The windows and doors of most older homes tend to have single glazing and the home's occupants experience the associated issues.
Retrofit double glazing is a popular solution that is quick and unobtrusive.
Retrofit Double Glazing
Simply put, retrofit double glazing is the process of replacing your existing single-glazed windows and/or doors with double-glazed units.
We specialise in aluminium joinery retro-fit double glazing. For those with existing timber joinery, we offer an Aluminium Insert Replacement service - scroll down for more details.

Now, if you decide to go the route of retrofit double glazing, we can help you determine whether full frame replacement (entire existing window/door is removed prior to installation of a new one) or insert replacement (new window/door is set into an existing frame opening) would be most appropriate for your home.
The second video below gives an overview of these two options.
