It might be time to consider upgrading your windows, if you have already got older style double glazing in your property in Fleet but have been living with problems, like draughts or condensation between the panels.

Double Glazing Fleet Hampshire (GU51)

Condensation occurs when a small gap appears in the seal around the glass, and warm air from inside the property finds its way into the space between the panes. As the warmer air comes into contact with the colder outside pane of glass, moisture forms, with condensation being the result. It is time to replace your current windows, if this is happening frequently.

If your Fleet home currently has windows with single glazing, upgrading to double glazed windows will see immediate improvements in the warmth and soundproofing. Upgrading to double glazing can also help to boost you home's value when you elect to sell.

Through the use of uPVC materials, modern day double glazed window frames can be made in pretty much any colour. For a traditional look you can also have timber frames, or for a more modern feel even go with aluminium. Aluminium windows no longer have to be a dull, grey and rather bland looking frame for your double glazing, and can readily be coloured to match your home.

You must be able to find the CE mark on any new double glazed frames that are fitted in Fleet homes. This CE mark should be plainly visible inside the sealed glass unit and on the frame, and verifies the standard of both the glass and the frame itself. For all doors and windows manufactured in the United Kingdom and the EU, the CE logo is a necessity. If your Fleet double glazing firm doesn't use CE approved components they could perhaps be manufactured using less stringent standards of production and low quality materials. Although these lower quality products may be adequate in some instances, it is recommended that you insist on guaranteed products that have CE approval for your property in Fleet.
