Double glazing in Brookmans Park

Around Brookmans Park you will mostly find 1930s detached and semi-detached houses on large plots. Detached homes have more external walls and windows losing heat, so upgrading every window to modern double glazing at once gives consistent comfort throughout.

In conservation areas, slim double glazed units can sometimes be fitted into traditional-style frames, but check with the council first, as listed buildings usually need consent. Original 1930s leaded lights can be replicated within double glazed units, so you keep the decorative pattern while gaining modern insulation and quieter rooms.

Larger houses and gardens suit bifold and sliding doors, and conservatory roof replacements are a common request. The village is surrounded by green belt, which matters for bigger extensions though not for like-for-like windows. We are about 10.5 miles from our Edmonton factory, a short drive up the A10 and M25 or through Potters Bar.

Double glazing uses two panes of glass with a sealed, insulating gap between them, cutting heat loss, draughts and condensation compared with single glazing. We fit it in new windows and doors or as replacement sealed units, suiting almost every home, from older properties still single glazed to houses with failed units.

• Warmer rooms and lower heat loss
• Quieter rooms than single glazing
• Toughened and laminated safety glass options
