Acoustic glazing in Turkey Street

Around Turkey Street you will mostly find interwar semis and terraces, with some post-war houses 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.

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. 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.

Many of these houses still have their first-generation double glazing, which is now past its best. Homes near the A10 or the Hertford Road can get traffic noise, and acoustic glass helps. Most replacements here do not need planning permission. Our Edmonton factory is about 4 miles south.

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.
