Double Glazing Swanage

Double Glazing Swanage Dorset (BH19): The installation of double glazing in your home in Swanage, will help boost security, increase your home's energy efficiency and reduce noise levels. Double glazing refers to the way a window is made using twin panes of glass with a gas filled layer, normally argon, between them. Because it acts like insulation, this gas provides a property or home with outstanding sound proofing and thermal qualities.

If your house in Swanage is already fitted with older style double glazed windows, and you are living with problems such as condensation or draughts, it might be a wise idea to now get new replacement double glazing to get your building up-to-date.

The switch to double glazed windows will result in immediate improvements in the warmth and soundproofing, if your home in Swanage has currently got single glazing. You may also raise the value of your home (if you opt to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazed windows.

DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

To find windows that satisfy your choice of style and match your property, you should hire an experienced double glazing installer in the Swanage area. From traditional sash windows for older properties, to contemporary casement windows and patio doors, double glazing units can be found in an array of sizes, colours and materials.

Having hinges on one side only, double glazing casement windows can open outwards or inwards depending on the design. This means that they're easily cleaned, and offer the possibility of a good amount of airflow during the summertime. For extra security, casement windows can also be arranged into a tilt and turn window. Permitting them to be opened slightly, tilt and turn windows have an extra hinge. This adds extra security as they can be locked in place when partially open to enable cool air to flow into the room.

To complement a period house in Swanage, there are also options available for double glazed sash windows with a more traditional appearance. There are double hung styles where both of the panes can be moved, and single hung models where only one pane can be slid open. The sash windows of yesteryear had a reputation for poor standard of energy efficiency, but this issue has been largely lessened with modern day double glazing models, and with regards to thermal loss, there is hardly any difference between sash and casement windows today.

An alternative may be a bay window, which looks fantastic and helps to bring a feeling of space to even the smallest of rooms. If you've got an existing bay window it's possible to swap it for a double glazed equivalent to keep the style. Bay windows bring plenty of style and character to a property, however the main benefit is the huge amount of light that they allow to flood into a room. A further plus point is being able to install a window seat, if a deep sill exists on the inside of the window.

With the development of modern uPVC materials, pretty much any colour you desire is possible in today's double glazed frames. You can also have wooden frames for a classic feel, or aluminium for a more contemporary look. Aluminium windows no longer have to be a grey, dull and bland looking frame for your windows, and can readily be coloured to match your house.

All double glazed windows installed today must come with a CE approval mark. This proves the quality of the glass and of the frame and the mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass unit and on the frame. For all doors and windows manufactured in Great Britain and the EU, the CE logo is a necessity. Make sure that your double glazing firm in Swanage is using CE approved materials for manufacturing it's doors and windows, or else they might be made to less stringent standards and using inferior components and materials. Although these poorer quality frames may be adequate in certain situations, you should demand guaranteed products with CE approval for your home in Swanage.

The time frame for installation can then be arranged and should include any need for planning permission applications if necessary.

If your property is a listed building, is in an area such as the boundaries of a National Park, is in a conservation area or has a restrictive covenant, you may require planning permission. An experienced double glazing firm will be able to advise you on any restrictions and will likely have previously undertaken work in the area, and will know the legal requirements and necessities.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

If you have a cat, you might have considered installing a cat flap in your double glazing. This is a great way to let your cat come and go as they please, without you having to keep opening and closing the door repeatedly.

However, it is important to note that installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a DIY task, and that the services of a professional should be sought. Specialised equipment and tools are required for this complex procedure. If you do not have experience in this type of work, it is best to hire a professional cat flap fitter.

Once you have chosen a cat flap, it is advisable to contact a specialist cat flap installer. They'll visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space for the cat flap installation. They can also advise you on the best kind of cat flap for your needs.

The cat flap installer will order a new double glazing unit with a hole cut out for the cat flap, thereby ensuring proper installation and preserving the unit's integrity.

The cat flap fitter will return to your home in Swanage to install the new double-glazed unit once it has been delivered. This involves removing the old double-glazed unit and installing the new one.
