Double Glazing Whitley Bay

Double Glazing Whitley Bay Tyne and Wear (NE25): Double glazed windows can enhance your home's energy efficiency, reduce noise levels and boost security. The term double glazing essentially refers to the method of making these windows using two panes of glass, with a gas layer between them (commonly argon). This inert gas acts as an insulating material and delivers impressive sound proofing and thermal qualities for any home in Whitley Bay.

If you've already got older double glazed windows in your home in Whitley Bay but are experiencing problems, such as draughts or condensation between the panels, the time might have come to consider upgrading your windows.

If your Whitley Bay property currently has single glazing, upgrading to double glazed units will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and soundproofing. You may also enhance you home's value (if you elect to sell), by upgrading to double glazed windows.

DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

To find double glazed windows that match your choice and complement your home, you should hire a competent double glazing installer in the Whitley Bay area. Double glazing units can be purchased in an array of colours, materials and sizes, to match modern casement windows and patio doors to period sash windows for older properties.

Opening inwards or outwards, double glazed casement windows have hinges on one side. This permits easier cleaning and also delivers ample airflow during the summer. Casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn window for extra security. The addition of an extra hinge enables tilt and turn double glazed windows to open to a limited degree. Because they can be locked into position when only partly open to allow for a fresh breeze to flow into the room, the security is enhanced.

For that classic look to enhance a period house in Whitley Bay, there are double glazed sash windows available. There are double hung styles where both of the panes are moveable, and single hung designs where only one sash can be slid open. The sash windows of the past were known for their poor standard of energy efficiency, however this problem has been largely reduced with modern double glazing models, and with regards to thermal losses, there's very little between sash and casement windows today.

Helping to bring a sense of space to a room, bay windows look wonderful. If your Whitley Bay property has an existing bay window, replacing it with a double glazed equivalent shouldn't be too difficult. The advantage of a bay window is the amount of light it lets into a room, and if you've got a sill that is sufficiently deep on the inside, it is the ideal place to have a window seat installed.

Modern day double glazed frames can be manufactured in pretty much any colour by using uPVC materials. For a more modern feel you could opt for aluminium, or for the classic look - timber frames units. Today's aluminium windows can be coloured to blend in with your home and no longer have to be a bland, grey and rather dull looking frame for your windows.

All new double glazed frames must display the CE approval mark. This mark should be plainly visible inside the sealed glass panel and on the frame, and is proof of the standard of both the glass and the frame itself. All windows and doors produced in Great Britain and the EU, must be marked with the CE logo. If your Whitley Bay double glazing firm does not use CE approved components they could possibly be made using less stringent standards of production and low quality materials. It is always best to demand that the company only uses products that come with a CE approval and are backed up with a guarantee.

REPLACEMENT DOUBLE GLAZING IN WHITLEY BAY

For your new window installation in Whitley Bay you can ask friends or acquaintances to recommend local double glazing specialists. This can be invaluable when trying to find companies to give you a price quote, and word of mouth recommendations provide a perception of how a company performs. When trying to get double glazing quotations in Whitley Bay, always bring in at least 3 different companies, to get a wide range of prices. A free, no obligation quote will be provided by an established double glazing installer, so that you're able to pick the right solution for your home. Accurate measurements of your window and door frames will be obtained by the salesperson, so you will receive a definitive price for the work. Bear in mind, there may well be room for negotiation, if you are having your entire property in Whitley Bay double glazed.

Once you decide on a double glazing company in Whitley Bay and are happy with the quoted price, your new windows will be made-to-order. The manufacturing process could take anything from several days to a few weeks, and is going to be determined by your frame type, the design of window, the amount of doors and windows you require and the opening options. An installation time frame will then be arranged between you and the company, which should include a provision for getting planning permission when necessary.

It may be necessary to get planning permission if your house is close to a National Park, has a restrictive covenant, is a listed building or is in a conservation area. Being aware of all the legal necessities and requirements, an experienced double glazing specialist will advise you about any local restrictions and will have previously done work in the Whitley Bay area.

The time required to fit your double glazing will naturally be determined by exactly how many windows you've ordered. It typically takes under 3 hours to put in a typical double glazed window. This time will also include removing the old window and frame, and preparing the void into which the new window will sit. An average home in Whitley Bay can be completed over a couple of days with the minimum of disruption to you.

ACCREDITATIONS

Your chosen double glazing company in Whitley Bay should at least be a member of one recognised trade association such as Trustmark, the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF), the DGCOS (Double Glazing Conservatory Ombudsman Scheme) or FENSA.

While these organisations don't necessarily mean that nothing at all will go wrong during the installation of new windows, it does show that the company is qualified, experienced and observes building regulations, which is legally required.

These industry bodies also offer some form of compensation or guarantee schemes, along with the company warranty, to ensure that in the event of any argument there's an unbiased mediation between the two parties. Whilst the majority of double glazing installations in Whitley Bay are completed with no issues, it's great to know that if help is necessary, it's easily obtainable.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

In case you have a cat, you might have considered putting in a cat flap in your double glazing. This can be a brilliant way to give your cat the freedom to enter and leave the house as they wish, without you having to continually open and close the door.

However, it is worth noting that installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a task that can be done by yourself. This is a complex process that requires specialised tools and equipment. If you lack experience in this kind of work, it is advisable to hire a specialist cat flap fitter.

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 stop other animals from entering your house, or a cat flap with a microchip reader to allow only your cat to enter your house.

Once you've selected a cat flap, you should contact a specialist cat flap installer. They'll visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space where the cat flap will be installed. They can also give you advice on the best type of cat flap for your needs.

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

Once the new double glazing unit has arrived, the cat flap fitter will revisit your home in Whitley Bay 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 cat flap to ensure its proper functioning and demonstrate its usage and settings. (13805 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
