Many properties built between the 1940s and 1970s have no lintels over window openings. The original frames were designed to support the walls above but replacement windows aren’t designed to support such loadings. If you have double-glazed windows and can hear or feel a draught, it means there is a problem with your window seals. Draughts are not only an inconvenience; they also increase the level of heat loss in your home, which could seriously affect your utility bills.

But the fact is, windows tend to only leak around 10% of a typical home’s total heat loss, compared to 35% through the walls. A similar but more serious problem can occur with bay windows, particularly to 1930s houses. The original windows often had discreet integral columns supporting heavy loadings from roofs. So it’s again important that replacement windows are designed to provide sufficient structural support. Whether it’s a simple repair, replacement of faulty components, or adjustment of the locking mechanism, the skilled technicians ensure that the door locks and mechanisms are restored to optimal condition.
You should replace your double glazing when you notice condensation or mist forming between the window panes. This means the seals are failing and moisture is getting trapped inside, which can lead to heat loss, damp and can risk damaging the frame. Installing double glazed windows comes with a range of benefits, and so does maintaining them.

Existing window frames can have new super-thin double-glazed pane units fitted to replace single-glazed units. This usually suits casements, however, rather than sliding sashes as the extra weight can cause problems with counterbalancing. Replacement windows also need to comply with requirements for ventilation, e.g. with trickle vents in window frames and opening lights. However, replacement windows installed after April 2002 should have Building Regulations approval. The exception is where you’re just replacing the glass, not the whole window.
