It may be time to look at swapping your windows, if you have already got older style double glazed windows in your house in Saffron Walden but are living with problems, like condensation between the panes or draughts.

Double Glazing Saffron Walden Essex (CB10)

When small gaps appear in the seal around the glass, heated air from inside the property gets into the space between the glass panes and causes condensation. Moisture forms as the heated air comes into contact with the cooler exterior glass pane, which means that you have a condensation issue. It may be time to replace your existing windows, if this is occurring regularly.

Upgrading to double glazed units will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and insulation from outside sounds, if your home in Saffron Walden currently has single glazed windows. You could also boost your property's value (should you elect to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazed windows.

Double glazing casement windows are hinged on one side and can be made to open outwards or inwards. This gives plenty of airflow in the summer season and allows for easier cleaning. Casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn window for added security. Allowing them to be opened slightly, tilt and turn double glazed windows have an additional hinge. Enhanced security results, because to allow a cool breeze to enter the room, they can be locked in place when partially open.

There are also available options for double glazing sash windows with a more traditional appearance to complement a period home in Saffron Walden. These are available in both single hung and double hung styles, where either one or both sashes are able to be slid open. In times past sash windows were not noted for being energy efficient, but contemporary double glazed designs have lessened this issue and now there's very little between casement windows and sash windows in terms of thermal losses.

An alternative might be a bay window, which will look fantastic and help to bring a feeling of space to even the smallest of rooms. If your house in Saffron Walden has already got bay windows, it should not be too difficult to replace them with double glazed equivalents. The huge amount of light that it lets into a room, is the good thing about a bay window, and it's a great place to fit a window seat if you have a deep sill on the inside.

With the use of uPVC materials, modern double glazing frames can be made in virtually any colour. For a traditional look you could also have timber frames, or for a more contemporary feel even choose aluminium double glazing. Modern aluminium windows can easily be coloured to blend in with your house and no longer have to be a grey, dull and bland looking frame for your windows.

All new double glazed windows should display the CE approval mark. This mark proves the quality of both the glass and the frame, and should be plainly visible on the frame and inside the sealed glass unit. All doors and windows produced in the United Kingdom and within Europe, must be marked with the CE logo. If your Saffron Walden double glazing specialist doesn't use CE approved components they could perhaps be made using less stringent standards of production and low quality materials. It's always best to insist that the company only uses double glazing that comes with CE approval and is backed up with a guarantee or warranty.
