Pitsea Double Glazed Windows & Doors

Double Glazing Pitsea Essex (SS13): You can reduce noise levels, boost security and enhance your home's energy efficiency through the installation of double glazing. Double glazing describes the way a window is made using two panes of glass with a gas filled medium, commonly argon, between them. As it behaves like insulation, this inert gas provides a home or property with excellent sound proofing and thermal qualities.

If you've already got older style double glazing in your house in Pitsea but are experiencing issues, like condensation between the glass panes or draughts, the time may have come to consider swapping your windows.

Double Glazing Pitsea Essex (SS13)

When a small gap develops in the seal around the glass, heated air from inside the house can enter the space between the glass panes and causes condensation. As the colder exterior pane of glass comes into contact with the warm air, moisture droplets form as condensation. If this is happening frequently, particularly during the winter, you could either have the sealed unit replaced, or get brand new windows.

Immediate improvements in the warmth and insulation from outside sounds will be experienced if your property in Pitsea has single glazing and you switch to double glazed units. You could also enhance you home's value (when you choose to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazing.

DOUBLE GLAZING WINDOW MATERIALS AND STYLES

To find windows that match your choice and complement your home, you can hire a professional double glazing installer in the Pitsea area. Double glazing units can be purchased in a wide range of colours, sizes and materials, to suit modern casement windows and patio doors to period sash windows for older houses.

Opening outwards or inwards, double glazing casement windows are hinged on one side only. This means that they're easier to clean, and can provide a good amount of airflow during the summertime. Casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn design for added security. Permitting them to open slightly, tilt and turn windows have an extra hinge. This adds extra security because they can be locked securely into position when only partly open to allow for a fresh breeze to enter the room.

For that classic look to enhance a period home in Pitsea, there are double glazed sash windows on the market. There are double hung models where both of the panes can be moved, and single hung styles where just one pane can be slid open. During the past sash windows were not noted for their energy efficiency, but modern double glazing models have lessened this problem and now there is very little between sash windows and casement windows with respect to thermal loss.

Bay windows look great and can bring a feeling of space to a room. If your home in Pitsea has already got bay windows, it should not be too difficult to replace them with comparable double glazed units. Bay windows bring lots of character and style to a property, but the main advantage is the huge amount of light that they let into a room. A further benefit is having the opportunity to put in a window seat, if the sill is deep enough on the inside of the window.

Double Glazing Quotes in Pitsea Essex

With the development of modern uPVC materials, almost any colour you desire is possible in today's double glazing window frames. It is also possible to have timber frames for a traditional look, or aluminium double glazing for a somewhat more contemporary feel. Aluminium frames no longer have to be a grey, dull and bland looking frame for your double glazing, and can easily be coloured to match your home.

All modern double glazing that is fitted in homes in Pitsea should display the CE approval mark. This CE mark proves the standard of both the glass and the frame, and should be visible on the frame and inside the sealed glass panel. For all doors and windows made in the British Isles and the EU, the CE logo is a requirement. If CE approved materials aren't used by your double glazing company in Pitsea, they may be using poor quality components and making their windows and doors using less rigorous specifications. Whilst they might be acceptable for certain uses, it's better to demand only using products that come with CE approval and are backed by a warranty.

During the quote a salesperson will obtain detailed measurements of your window and door frames to obtain an exact price. Don't forget, if you're having your whole property in Pitsea double glazed, there may be a bit of room for negotiation on price.

This will include removing the existing window and trueing up the opening for the new window to sit in. With minimal disruption to you, a normal house can be finished in a day or so.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

If you have a cat, you may have considered installing a cat flap in your double glazing. This can be a wonderful way to give your cat the freedom to enter and exit the house as they please, without you having to continuously open and close the door for them.

Installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a do-it-yourself job, so it is important to keep this in mind. It is a complex process that requires specialist tools and equipment. Unless you are experienced in this kind of work, it is best to hire a professional cat flap fitter.

How to install a cat flap in double glazing:

The first step is to choose a cat flap that is the right size for your cat and has the features you need. There are a variety of cat flaps available on the market, so you can pick one that is the best fit for your needs. Some features you might want to consider include a microchip reader or a lock. For example, you may want a cat flap with a microchip reader to allow only your cat to enter your property.

After choosing a cat flap, you need to contact a professional cat flap installer. They'll visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space where the cat flap will be installed. They can also provide you with advice on the best style of cat flap for your needs.

The cat flap fitter will order a new double glazing unit with a pre-cut hole for the cat flap, ensuring the cat flap's proper installation and maintaining the unit's integrity.

After the new double glazing unit is delivered, the cat flap fitter will return to your home in Pitsea to install it. This process involves removing the old double-glazed unit and installing the new one. The cat flap fitter then installs the cat flap in the hole cut into the double-glazed unit.

The cat flap fitter will test the device to ensure its proper functioning and demonstrate its usage and settings, providing you with the knowledge and confidence to operate the flap independently. (47902 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
