Acoustic glazing in Barnsbury

Homes in Barnsbury are mostly Georgian terraces, early Victorian squares and converted period flats. Where original windows must stay in conservation areas or listed buildings, acoustic laminated secondary glazing with a wide air gap can be very effective.

Victorian terraces often sit close to the pavement, so fitting acoustic glazing to front bedrooms first usually gives the most noticeable reduction in street noise. In flats above shops or near transport, combine acoustic glazing with well-sealed frames and acoustic trickle vents, since ventilation gaps can undo much of the glass's benefit.

A lot of these houses are now split into flats, so the freeholder may need to sign off before work starts. We also plan deliveries carefully, as parking near Upper Street and the Caledonian Road is tight and often permit-only.

Acoustic glazing uses laminated glass with a sound-damping interlayer, often combined with panes of different thicknesses, to reduce noise coming through your windows. It suits homes and businesses near busy roads, railways, flight paths, schools and nightlife, where outside noise affects sleep, work or everyday comfort.
