If your house in Winkfield already has older double glazed windows installed, and you're experiencing issues such as condensation or draughts, it might be a good idea to now get some new replacement double glazing to bring your property up-to-date.

Double Glazing Winkfield Berkshire (SL4)

Condensation in the gap between the panes is caused when gaps appear in the sealed unit and warmer air enters from inside the property. As the warmer air makes contact with the cooler external pane of glass, moisture forms, with condensation being the result. If this is happening on a regular basis it is probably time to upgrade your current windows.

If your Winkfield home has single glazed windows, the switch to double glazed units will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and insulation from outside sounds. You could also boost the value of your property (if you elect to sell), by upgrading to double glazing.

Hinged on one side, double glazed casement windows can open outwards or inwards depending on the design. This means that they're easier to clean, and can provide adequate airflow during the summertime. For extra security, casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn design. The addition of an extra hinge enables tilt and turn windows to open to a limited degree. This adds extra security as they can be locked into position when partly open to enable a fresh breeze to enter the room.

For that classic look to enhance a period property in Winkfield, there are double glazing sash windows available. These are available in both single hung and double hung styles, where either one or both sashes can slide. In the past sash windows were not known for being energy efficient, but contemporary double glazed designs have reduced this problem and nowadays there is very little between sash and casement windows in relation to thermal loss.

Another alternative may be a bay window, which will look fabulous and help to bring a sense of space to even the most modest of rooms. If you have an existing bay window it's feasible to swap it for a double glazed equivalent to keep the style. The quantity of light that it lets into a room, is the good thing about a bay window, and it makes for a perfect place to have a window seat installed if you've got a deep sill on the inside.
