Acoustic glazing in Leytonstone

Homes in Leytonstone are mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many converted to flats. 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. 1930s homes on main arterial roads benefit most from acoustic units in the front bays, along with good seals, because gaps let sound in as easily as thin glass.

The A12 cuts through the area in a deep cutting, and homes nearby, as well as those on the High Road, pick up traffic noise day and night. We recommend acoustic glazing for these. Some streets are in conservation areas, so we check with Waltham Forest Council first. Leytonstone is about 3.5 miles from our workshop.

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
