Acoustic glazing in White City

The housing in White City is largely 1930s council-built blocks, modern apartments and Edwardian terraces. 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. 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.

Flats here usually mean working with a landlord, housing association or managing agent, so we confirm consent and access before fitting. The A40 Westway and the Central line run right through the area, and for rooms facing them we recommend acoustic double glazing to keep things quieter.

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.

• Laminated glass adds safety and security
• Fits new windows or existing frames
