A Beginner’s Guide
Explaining Secondary Glazing
So, what exactly is secondary glazing? It shares a lot of similarities with double glazing and is sometimes mistaken for it, but they’re two different products. Double glazing is when two panes of glass are fitted into the same window, whereas secondary glazing is when a separate glass unit is fitted on top of an existing window. Imagine two single pane windows stuck together and you’ll be very close to the idea.
Secondary glazing is useful because there are scenarios where replacing single pane windows isn’t permitted. For example, if you live in a Heritage home, you may want to replace your old draughty windows with more modern ones, only to find that you can’t get permission from the local authority. As secondary glazing doesn’t fundamentally alter the appearance or structure of the existing building though, the regulations aren’t as strict and it makes a great alternative.

Yes, we have a ten year guarantee on all of our secondary glazing.
Can Secondary Glazing Be Removed If Necessary?
Yes, the benefit of it being a separate fixture is that secondary glazing can be installed and removed without affecting the original window. If you need to remove it, it’s quite straightforward and it can be put back up later without trouble.
Does Secondary Glazing Get Condensation?
Sometimes, but not as much as a regular single-pane window. Fitting secondary glazing can dramatically reduce the chance of condensation forming on your windows and while it won’t be eliminated completely, it will happen far less.
Can I Also Include A Fly Screen?
Yes, if you wish to include a fly screen in your new secondary glazing we can accommodate that.
