Double glazing in Highams Park

Homes in Highams Park are mostly Edwardian terraces, bay-fronted 1930s semis and post-war flats. Many Victorian terraces still have single-glazed sashes, and moving to double glazing is often the biggest single comfort upgrade, whether through new windows or secondary glazing.

Original 1930s leaded lights can be replicated within double glazed units, so you keep the decorative pattern while gaining modern insulation and quieter rooms. In homes built from the 1980s onwards, misted or blown double glazed units are common, and replacing just the glass often restores performance without new frames.

Because many houses back onto green space, we pay attention to security on rear doors and sliding or bifold doors to the garden. The trip from our Edmonton factory is about 1.7 miles, so surveys and fitting are easy to schedule.

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
• Less condensation on the glass
• Quieter rooms than single glazing
