Secondary glazing in Stroud Green

The housing in Stroud Green is largely tall Victorian terraces and large semis, many divided into flats. Behind Victorian sash windows, vertical sliding secondary glazing aligned with the meeting rail keeps the view uninterrupted and lets both windows open for ventilation.

In 1930s bays, secondary glazing can follow each facet of the bay or span across it, so we measure carefully around radiators, sills and curtain tracks. For flats where the lease or freeholder prevents changing external windows, secondary glazing fitted inside is usually the simplest way to reduce traffic noise and heat loss.

Because so many homes here are flats, we usually arrange freeholder consent before work begins, and check with Haringey or Islington Council depending on which side of the boundary you are on. Some streets fall within conservation areas. We are about 4 miles from Stroud Green, and plan parking for fitting day in advance.

Secondary glazing is a discreet second window fitted on the inside of your existing windows, leaving the originals untouched. It suits listed buildings, conservation areas, flats where external windows cannot be changed, and anyone wanting to cut noise and draughts without replacing period windows.

• Reduces draughts and outside noise
• Suitable where replacement is restricted
• Panels open or lift out for cleaning
