Double Glazing Westham

Double Glazing Westham East Sussex (BN24): You can enhance your home's energy efficiency, boost security and reduce noise levels by installing double glazing. The expression double glazing essentially relates to the way these windows are made using twin panes of glass, with a gas layer between them (usually argon). Acting as insulation, this gas delivers effective thermal and sound proofing qualities for any property.

It may be time to consider updating your windows, if you've already got older style double glazed windows in your home in Westham but are experiencing issues, such as draughts or condensation between the panes.

Upgrading to double glazing will result in immediate improvements in the warmth and soundproofing, if your house in Westham has currently got single glazing. Upgrading to double glazed windows may also add more value to your home, which of course will be beneficial if you eventually choose to sell up and move.

DOUBLE GLAZING WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

To find windows that match your choice of style and complement your home, you should hire a specialist double glazing installer in the Westham area. From period sash windows for older homes, to contemporary casement windows and patio doors, double glazed frames can be found in a wide range of sizes, colours and materials.

Double glazing casement windows have hinges on one side and can open inwards or outwards. This provides a good amount of airflow in the summer and permits easier cleaning. They're also available in a tilt and turn arrangement which adds an added level of security where necessary. Tilt and turn double glazed windows have an additional hinge to be able to open a small amount. Improved security results, because to allow a cool breeze to enter the room, they can be locked securely in place when only partly open.

There are also options available for double glazing sash windows for a more traditional look to complement a period home in Westham. These can be single hung, where just one pane is moveable, or double hung, where both panes can be slid open. Sash windows weren't recognised for being energy efficient in times past, but these days there is practically nothing between the thermal losses of sash and casement windows, as contemporary double glazing models have alleviated this problem.

Helping to bring a sense of space to a room, bay windows look amazing. If your property in Westham already has bay windows, they can fairly easily be replaced with double glazed equivalents. The amount of light that it lets into a room, is the main benefit of a bay window, and it makes for a perfect place to fit a window seat if you've got a deep sill on the inside.

By using uPVC materials, modern day double glazed frames can be made in pretty much any colour. For a traditional look you could also have timber frames, or for that contemporary feel even pick aluminium double glazing. Readily coloured to suit your home, aluminium units no longer have to be a dull, bland and grey as they were in the past.

All modern double glazed windows must come with a CE approval mark. This mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass unit and on the frame, and verifies the standard of both the frame and the glass. All windows and doors produced in the UK and within Europe, must be marked with the CE logo. If CE approved materials are not used by your Westham double glazing firm, they could be using cheaper components and making their windows and doors using less rigorous specifications. Even though these lower quality frames may be acceptable in certain situations, you should insist on guaranteed products that have CE approval for your home in Westham.

INSTALLATION OF REPLACEMENT DOUBLE GLAZING IN WESTHAM

Finding a good double glazing firm in Westham for your new windows and doors can always start with recommendations from friends or acquaintances. These kinds of word of mouth testimonials can be priceless when looking for a company to give you a double glazing quotation, and can sometimes provide useful insights into the performance of a particular company. When asking for double glazing quotes in Westham, always talk to at least three different firms, to get a selection of prices. A free, no obligation quotation will be provided by a trustworthy double glazing fitter, so that you're able to pick the right solution. During the quote a salesperson will obtain precise measurements of your door and window frames to obtain an exact price. Don't forget, if you are having your whole home in Westham double glazed, there may well be some room for negotiation on price.

Once you have chosen your preferred double glazing company in Westham and have agreed on a price for your windows, they'll be custom made in your desired colour and style. According to the opening options, the number of windows you require, your frame type and the style of window, this could take anywhere from several days to a few weeks. The time frame for installation will be agreed upon by you and must include any need for planning permission applications if necessary.

It's possible that you may need planning permission if your home is close to a National Park, has a restrictive covenant, is a listed building or is in a conservation area. An established double glazing specialist will be happy to advise you on any restrictions and will have already completed work in the area, and so will know the legal necessities and requirements.

Your double glazing installation time will obviously depend on how many doors and windows are involved. A regular double glazed window can be installed in under 3 hours. This time also includes taking out the old window and frame, and preparing the space to take the new window. A normal house can be completed within a couple of days with minimal disruption to you.

ACCREDITATIONS

Any double glazing firm in Westham worth their salt should be a member of the Double Glazing Conservatory Ombudsman Scheme, FENSA, the Glass and Glazing Federation, Trustmark, or some other acknowledged industry organisation.

Membership of such trade bodies demonstrates that the company is qualified, experienced and complies with building regulations, but doesn't guarantee that nothing will go wrong during your double glazing installation.

These industry organisations also offer some form of guarantee or compensation schemes, in addition to the company warranty, to make sure that in the event of any disagreement there's an independent mediation between the 2 parties. Naturally, the majority of double glazing installations in Westham are completed with no issues, but it is good to know that help can be sought if it is required.

AFTERCARE AND AFTER SALES SUPPORT

Even if everything has gone smoothly during the installation there might be questions that need to be asked or advice needed afterwards. Your double glazing should come with a comprehensive warranty of up to 10 years, and many double glazing firms in Westham will also offer a callout and troubleshooting service in case anything goes wrong with your windows. To see whether there is a free repair and callout period as part of the warranty, it is advisable to ask beforehand.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

If you're a cat owner, you've probably thought about fitting a cat flap in your double glazing. This is a superb way to allow your cat to come and go as they please, without you having to continuously open and shut the door for them.

It's important to remember that installing a cat flap in double glazing is not a do-it-yourself task, and that a specialist should be hired to carry out the work. This complex procedure cannot be completed without specialist equipment and tools. If you're not experienced in this kind of work, it is best to hire a professional cat flap installer.

How to install a cat flap in double glazing:

The first step is to choose a cat flap that is the right size for your cat and has the features you need. There are a variety of cat flaps available on the market, so you can choose one that is the best fit for your needs. Some features you may want to consider include a lock or a microchip reader. For example, you may want a cat flap with a lock to prevent other animals from entering your property, or a cat flap with a microchip reader to allow only your cat to enter your house.

Once a cat flap has been chosen, a specialist cat flap installer should be contacted. 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 style of cat flap for your needs.

The cat flap fitter will then order a new double-glazed unit with a hole cut out for the cat flap. This will ensure that the cat flap is installed correctly and that the integrity of the double-glazed unit is not compromised.

Once the new double-glazed unit has arrived, the cat flap specialist will revisit your home in Westham to install it. This involves removing the old double glazing unit and replacing it with the new one. The cat flap fitter then installs the cat flap in the hole cut into the double glazing unit.

The device installer will test the device to ensure its proper functioning and demonstrate its usage and settings, providing you with the knowledge and confidence to operate the device independently. (13805 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
