This inert gas acts as an insulating material and provides excellent thermal and sound proofing qualities for any home in Hullbridge.

The time might have come to think about updating your windows, if you've already got older double glazing in your house in Hullbridge but have been living with problems, like condensation between the glass panes or draughts.

Double Glazing Hullbridge Essex (SS5)

Condensation occurs when a small gap appears in the seal around the glass, and heated air from inside the house finds its way into the space between the panes. As the warm air comes into contact with the colder outside glass pane, moisture is formed, with condensation being the result. If this happens on a regular basis it is time to change your existing windows.

If your Hullbridge home currently has windows with single glazing, changing to double glazing will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and soundproofing. Upgrading to double glazed windows can also add extra value to your home, which of course will be advantageous if you later opt to sell up and relocate.

Having hinges on one side only, double glazed casement windows can open outwards or inwards depending on their design. This enables easier cleaning and also provides ample airflow during the summer months. For extra security, casement windows can also be arranged into a tilt and turn window. The addition of a supplementary hinge enables tilt and turn windows to be opened to a limited degree. This adds more security as they can be locked securely in place when only partially open to permit a fresh breeze to flow into the room.

To complement a period home in Hullbridge, there are also options available for double glazed sash windows with a more traditional look. These can be double hung, where both panes can be slid open, or single hung, where just one pane is moveable. Sash windows weren't noted for being energy efficient in past times, but nowadays there is virtually nothing between the thermal losses of casement and sash windows, as modern double glazing models have alleviated this issue.

Through the use of uPVC materials, modern day double glazing window frames can be made in almost any colour. It's also possible to have wooden frames for a classic look, or aluminium double glazing for a somewhat more modern feel. Readily coloured to match your house, aluminium frames no longer have to be a grey, dull and bland like they were in the 1970s and 80s.

All double glazing installed today should come with a CE approval mark. This mark should be plainly visible inside the sealed glass unit and on the frame, and verifies the quality of both the frame and the glass. All doors and windows manufactured in Great Britain and within Europe, must be marked with the CE logo. If your Hullbridge double glazing specialist does not use CE approved components they may be manufactured using less rigorous production standards and poor quality materials. It is better to always insist on only using products that come with a CE approval and are backed up with a guarantee.
