Secondary glazing in Bowes Park

Around Bowes Park you will mostly find Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats. Behind Victorian sash windows, vertical sliding secondary glazing aligned with the meeting rail keeps the view uninterrupted and lets both windows open for ventilation.

For flats where the lease or freeholder prevents changing external windows, secondary glazing fitted inside is usually the simplest way to reduce traffic noise and heat loss. For offices and shops in noisy locations, secondary glazing improves working comfort without altering the external facade, which helps where landlords or planners restrict changes.

The North Circular runs along the northern edge, and homes on the nearby streets live with constant traffic noise. Acoustic glazing, combined with well-sealed frames, makes a real difference in bedrooms. Some streets may fall within a conservation area, so we check with Haringey or Enfield Council (depending on your side of the boundary) before quoting. We are about 3 miles from here.

Secondary glazing is a discreet second window fitted on the inside of your existing windows, leaving the originals untouched. It suits listed buildings, conservation areas, flats where external windows cannot be changed, and anyone wanting to cut noise and draughts without replacing period windows.

• Keeps original windows in place
• Suitable where replacement is restricted
• Panels open or lift out for cleaning
