Acoustic glazing in Potters Bar

Homes in Potters Bar are mostly 1930s bay-fronted semis, post-war detached houses, bungalows and flats. 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.

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. On detached homes, target the elevations facing the noise source, such as a road or railway, rather than paying for acoustic glass in every window.

Between the M25, the A1(M) and the East Coast Main Line, road and rail noise is an issue for some streets, and acoustic glass helps. Potters Bar falls under Hertsmere Borough Council; most replacements need no planning permission, but we check for flats and listed buildings. The town is about 8.2 miles from our factory.

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
