Double Glazing Whittlesey

Double Glazing Whittlesey Cambridgeshire (PE7): The installation of double glazing will help to reduce noise, improve security and increase the energy efficiency of your Whittlesey home. Double glazing refers to the method of making the window using 2 panes of glass with a gas filled medium, generally argon, trapped between them. Acting as insulation, this inert gas delivers impressive thermal and sound proofing qualities for any home.

If you've already got older double glazed windows in your house in Whittlesey but are living with issues, such as draughts or condensation between the glass panes, it might be time to think about updating your windows.

An immediate improvement in the warmth and insulation from outside noises will be seen if your property in Whittlesey has windows with single glazing and you switch to double glazing. You may also increase the value of your property (when you choose to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazing.

DOUBLE GLAZING WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

By using a competent double glazing installer in Whittlesey, you will be able find windows that match your choice of style and complement your property beautifully. From period sash windows for older homes, to modern patio doors and casement windows, double glazed units are available in a wide array of materials, colours and sizes.

Opening inwards or outwards, double glazed casement windows have hinges on one side. This provides plenty of airflow in the warmer summer months and permits easier cleaning. Tilt and turn casement windows are also available for use where security is vital. Tilt and turn windows have an additional hinge to be able to open a small amount. Increased security is the result, because to let a cool breeze to flow into the room, they can be locked in position when partly open.

Double glazed sash windows with a more tradition appearance can be purchased to complement older or period houses in Whittlesey. These can be double hung, where both of the panes can be opened, or single hung, where just one pane slides. The sash windows of yesteryear were known for their poor standard of energy efficiency, but this problem has been largely alleviated with modern double glazed designs, and with regards to thermal losses, there's hardly any difference between sash and casement windows nowadays.

Bay windows look amazing and can bring a sense of space to a room. If your property in Whittlesey already has bay windows, you could replace them with comparable double glazed units. Bay windows bring a lot of character and style to a home, but the main advantage is the quantity of light that they allow into a room. Another benefit is having the opportunity to put in a useful window seat, if a deep sill exists on the inside of the window.

By using uPVC materials, modern double glazed window frames can be made in almost any colour. It's also possible to have timber frames for a classic look, or aluminium frames for a somewhat more modern feel. Today's aluminium units can be coloured to match your property and no longer have to be a bland, grey and rather dull looking frame for your double glazing.

All new double glazed frames that are installed in homes in Whittlesey should display the CE approval mark. This CE mark is proof of the standard of both the glass and the frame, and should be plainly visible on the frame and inside the sealed glass unit. All doors and windows made in the United Kingdom and within Europe, must be marked with the CE logo. If your double glazing company in Whittlesey doesn't use CE approved components they could possibly be manufactured using less rigorous production standards and inferior materials. Although these may be acceptable for some uses, it is best to insist on only using double glazing that comes with CE approval and is backed by a guarantee.

THE INSTALLATION OF REPLACEMENT DOUBLE GLAZING IN WHITTLESEY

A good starting point when searching for a decent double glazing firm in Whittlesey is to ask friends or neighbours for a recommendation. These kinds of word of mouth recommendations can be invaluable when searching for a company to give you a double glazing quote, and can frequently provide invaluable insights into the reliability and workings of a particular company. When trying to get double glazing quotes in Whittlesey, always go to at least 3 different firms, to get a selection of prices. So as to help you pick the best solution for your new doors and windows, an experienced double glazing fitter should give you a free, no obligation quotation. Accurate measurements of your window and door frames will be taken by a salesperson, so that you'll be given an exact price for the work. Remember, there might be room for negotiation, if you're having your entire property in Whittlesey double glazed.

Once you settle on a double glazing company in Whittlesey and are satisfied with the price quoted, your new windows will be custom-made to your measurements. This step could take from several days to a few weeks according to the amount of windows you require, the style of window, the opening options and your frame type. An installation time frame will then be arranged between the company and you, which should include a provision for getting planning permission when necessary.

It is possible that you might require planning permission if your home is close to a National Park, is a listed building, has a restrictive covenant or is in a conservation area. A trustworthy double glazing specialist will be able to advise you of any restrictions and will have already done work in the Whittlesey area, and so will understand the legal requirements and necessities.

Taking out the old window is included in this time frame, as is preparing the opening that the new window sits in. With the minimum of disruption to you, a normal house in Whittlesey can be finished in a day or so.

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 wonderful way to give your cat the freedom to enter and exit the house as they wish, without you having to continuously open and shut the door again and again.

However, it is worth noting that installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a task that can be done by yourself. It is a complex procedure that requires specialised equipment and tools. It is best to hire a specialist cat flap fitter if you aren't experienced in this sort of work.

How to install a cat flap in double glazing:

When choosing a cat flap, it is important to consider the size of your cat and the features you need. There are a variety of cat flaps available on the market, so you can pick one that is the best fit for your needs. For example, you may want a cat flap with a lock or a microchip reader.

Once you've chosen a cat flap, you need to contact a specialist cat flap installer. They will come to your home to assess the situation and to measure the space where the cat flap will be installed. They'll also be able to advise you on the best type 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.

Upon delivery of the new double-glazed unit, the cat flap specialist will return to your home in Whittlesey to install it. This process entails removing the old double-glazed 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.

Finally, the cat flap installer will test the device to ensure its proper operation and demonstrate its usage and settings. (13805 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
