Acoustic glazing in Leyton

Homes in Leyton are mostly late Victorian bay-fronted terraces, flat conversions and post-war estates. 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. Even modern double glazing can let in low-frequency traffic rumble, so upgrading to units with mixed-thickness laminated glass helps without replacing sound frames.

Front rooms on the High Road and Lea Bridge Road get a lot of traffic noise, so acoustic glazing is worth considering. Where a house is split into flats, we confirm freeholder consent before fitting, and in conservation areas we check with Waltham Forest Council. Our factory in Edmonton is about 3.5 miles north, up the Lea Valley.

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.

• Noticeably quieter rooms near busy roads
• Laminated glass adds safety and security
• Works alongside double or secondary glazing
