Great Harwood Double Glazed Windows & Doors

Double Glazing Great Harwood Lancashire (BB6): You can improve security, increase your home's energy efficiency and reduce noise levels by installing double glazing. Double glazing describes the way a window is made using a double layer of glass with a gas filled layer, generally argon, between them. As it acts like an insulating material, this inert gas provides a property or home with impressive sound proofing and thermal qualities.

If you already have older double glazed windows in your property in Great Harwood but are dealing with issues, like condensation between the panes or draughts, the time might have come to think about updating your windows.

Double Glazing Great Harwood Lancashire (BB6)

Condensation occurs in the gap between the window panes when a hole appears in the seal around the glass and warm air enters from inside the house. Moisture forms as the warmer air makes contact with the colder exterior pane of glass, which means that you have a condensation issue. It's time to change your current windows, if this problem occurs fairly often.

Changing to double glazing will see immediate improvements in the warmth and soundproofing, if your house in Great Harwood has currently got single glazed windows. You could also boost you home's value (when you opt to sell), by upgrading to double glazed windows.

DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

You should be able to find a professional installer in the Great Harwood area who'll be able to source windows to match the style of your choice, and that perfectly complement your home. Whether you are searching for modern casement windows and patio doors, or period sash windows for an older house in Great Harwood, double glazing frames are available in a wide selection of sizes, materials and colours to fit your needs.

Hinged on one side, double glazing casement windows can be made to open outwards or inwards depending on their design. This permits easier cleaning and also delivers plenty of airflow during the summer months. Casement windows can also be arranged into a tilt and turn window for additional security. Allowing them to be opened slightly, tilt and turn windows have an extra hinge. Because they can be locked securely in place when partially open to allow for cool air to enter the room, the security is improved.

For that classic look to enhance a period property in Great Harwood, there are double glazing sash windows on offer. These are available in both single hung and double hung models, where either one or both sashes are able to slide. Sash windows were not recognised for their energy efficiency in past times, but these days there's pretty much nothing between the thermal loss of casement and sash windows, as contemporary double glazing designs have alleviated this problem.

An alternative may be a bay window, which will look wonderful and help to bring a sense of space to even the smallest of rooms. If your home in Great Harwood has already got a bay window, it should not be too difficult to replace it with an equivalent double glazed frame. The advantage of a bay window is the amount of light it allows into a room, and if you've got a deep sill on the inside, it is the perfect place to have a window seat installed.

With the use of uPVC materials, modern double glazed units can be made in almost any colour. It's also possible to have timber frames for a classic feel, or aluminium double glazing for a somewhat more modern look. Readily coloured to blend in with your house, aluminium frames no longer have to be a dull, grey and bland like they used to be.

All double glazing fitted today must come with a CE approval mark. This mark proves the standard of both the glass and the frame, and should be visible on the frame and inside the sealed glass panel. The CE logo is a requirement for all windows and doors made in Great Britain and within Europe. If your double glazing specialist in Great Harwood doesn't use CE approved components they could be made using less stringent production standards and low quality materials. Whilst they may be acceptable for many uses, it's best to insist on only using double glazing that comes with CE approval and is backed by a warranty.

Once you settle on a double glazing company in Great Harwood and are pleased with the price quoted, your brand new windows will be made-to-order. Subject to your frame type, the opening options, the style of window and the amount of doors and windows you require, this could take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. The time frame for installation can then be arranged and must include any need for applying for planning permission if required.

It's possible that you might require planning permission if your home is a listed building, has a restrictive covenant, is in a conservation area or is in an area such as the boundaries of a National Park. A reliable double glazing company will be happy to advise you on any restrictions and will likely have previously done work in the Great Harwood area, and so will understand the legal necessities and requirements.

Your double glazing installation time will of course be determined by how many doors and windows are involved. A regular modern double glazed window can be installed in around 3 hours. Removing the old window will be included in this time, as will preparing the hole to take the new window. A typical home can be finished over a day or two with the minimum of disruption to you.

DOUBLE GLAZING ACCREDITATIONS

A reliable double glazing company should be affiliated with at least one trade body or association such as FENSA, Trustmark, the Double Glazing Conservatory Ombudsman Scheme or the GGF (Glass and Glazing Federation) to name but a few.
