Double Glazing Lightwater

Double Glazing Lightwater Surrey (GU18): The installation of double glazing can help to boost security, reduce noise and raise the energy efficiency of your Lightwater home. These windows are produced using a double layer of glass with a gas layer, typically argon, trapped between them, thus the expression 'double glazing'. This inert gas acts as insulation and delivers outstanding thermal and sound proofing qualities for any home in Lightwater.

DOUBLE GLAZING WINDOW MATERIALS AND STYLES

By hiring a professional double glazing installer in Lightwater, you'll be able find windows that both match the style of your choice and complement your property beautifully. Whether you are looking for traditional sash windows for an older property in Lightwater, or modern patio doors and casement windows, double glazed frames are available in a wide array of sizes, materials and colours to fit your needs.

Having hinges on one side, double glazing casement windows can be made to open outwards or inwards depending on their design. This means that they're easily cleaned, and offer the possibility of ample airflow during the summer season. Tilt and turn casement windows are also available for use when security is vital. Enabling them to open a small amount, tilt and turn double glazed windows have an additional hinge. This adds more security because they can be locked securely in place when only partly open to allow for a fresh breeze to enter the room.

Double glazing sash windows with a more tradition look are available to complement older or period properties in Lightwater. There are single hung versions where just one sash slides, and double hung styles, where both sashes slide. The sash windows of the past had a reputation for poor standard of energy efficiency, but this problem has for the most part been reduced with modern day double glazed models, and in terms of thermal loss, there's very little between sash and casement windows these days.

Bay windows look amazing and can bring a sense of space to a room. If your home in Lightwater already has a bay window, it can fairly easily be replaced with an equivalent double glazed unit.

With the use of uPVC materials, today's double glazed frames can be made in pretty much any colour. For a more modern feel you could opt for aluminium frames, or for the traditional look - wooden frames. Modern aluminium units can easily be coloured to blend in with your home and no longer have to be a bland, grey and rather dull looking frame for your double glazing.

All double glazing fitted today must come with a CE approval mark. This mark should be plainly visible inside the sealed glass panel and on the frame, and is proof of the standard of both the frame and the glass.
