Double glazing in W2

Many Victorian terraces still have single-glazed sashes, and moving to double glazing is often the biggest single comfort upgrade, whether through new windows or secondary glazing.

If your flat's frames are in good order, replacing only failed or misted double glazed units may avoid the need for freeholder approval for new windows. Detached homes have more external walls and windows losing heat, so upgrading every window to modern double glazing at once gives consistent comfort throughout.

Edgware Road, Bayswater Road, the Westway and Paddington station bring constant activity. Many buildings are listed or in conservation areas, so slim sash-style designs are usually the way forward. Where a building is split into flats, we liaise with the freeholder or managing agent before anything is ordered. We are about 8.6 miles from W2.

Double glazing uses two panes of glass with a sealed, insulating gap between them, cutting heat loss, draughts and condensation compared with single glazing. We fit it in new windows and doors or as replacement sealed units, suiting almost every home, from older properties still single glazed to houses with failed units.

• Warmer rooms and lower heat loss
• Less condensation on the glass
• Quieter rooms than single glazing
