Installing secondary glazing is a quicker solution than replacing entire windows; however, it is not as effective as double making safe glazing. As a business that puts our customers and the environment first, our philosophy is to replace the pane – not the frame – wherever possible. This significantly reduces the environmental impact of our installations and repairs, whilst also saving you time and money. Some are fortunate enough to have the original, or at least faithful replicas of the original sash windows in their homes. A common misconception is because their sash windows look old and tired, they have had their years and therefore need to be replaced. But bear in mind, there is not an aluminium or plastic window in the world that is as old as you Georgian or Victorian sash windows.
Even in older solid-walled buildings where the outer face of the wall has a brick arch or stone lintel a secondary timber beam can be sitting behind it, often plastered over. An obvious sign is rain and draughts entering through gaps in and around the windows. Condensation forming on windows or reveals internally and dripping down – sometimes mould is evident, too – are also clues. Externally, obvious gaps between frames and surrounding reveals/jambs may be visible. This normally requires taking the windows out and clamping the glued frames in a workbench.
