The time may have come to look at upgrading your windows, if you have already got older double glazing in your house in Farington but are having problems, such as condensation between the glass panes or draughts.

Double Glazing Farington Lancashire (PR25)

Condensation happens when small gaps appear in the seal around the glass, and warm air from inside the house gets into the gap between the panes. As the cooler outside pane of glass comes into contact with the warm air, moisture droplets form as condensation. If this is a regular occurrence, particularly in winter time, you can either replace the sealed unit, or get brand new double glazing.

Upgrading to double glazing will result in an immediate improvement in the warmth and soundproofing, if your property in Farington currently has windows with single glazing. You could also raise the value of your property (should you decide to sell), by upgrading to double glazing.

Having hinges on one side, double glazing casement windows can be made to open outwards or inwards depending on the design. This permits easier cleaning and also provides a good amount of airflow during the summer months. If security is vital to you, casement windows also come in a tilt and turn layout. Allowing them to be opened slightly, tilt and turn double glazed windows have an extra hinge. As they can be locked into position when only partly open to allow for a fresh breeze to flow into the room, the security is much better.

There are also available options for double glazing sash windows with a more traditional appearance to complement a period house in Farington. There are single hung versions where just one pane can be slid open, and double hung designs, where both of the panes are moveable. The sash windows of yesteryear were known for their poor standard of energy efficiency, however this problem has for the most part been alleviated with modern day double glazed designs, and when it comes to thermal losses, there is hardly any difference between casement and sash windows nowadays.

An alternative may be a bay window, which will look fabulous and help to bring a sense of space to even the smallest of rooms. If you've got an existing bay window it is possible to replace it with a double glazed equivalent to maintain the style. Bay windows bring plenty of style and character to a home, but the main benefit is the quantity of light that they allow to flood into a room. An additional plus point is having the opportunity to put in a window seat, if the sill is deep enough on the inside of the window.
