What’s Involved in a Professional Secondary Glazing Installation?
Secondary glazing is an increasingly popular solution for homeowners seeking to improve insulation, reduce noise, and preserve the character of period properties. But what exactly does a professional secondary glazing installation involve?
Initial Consultation and Assessment
Every professional installation begins with a detailed consultation. An expert will visit your property to assess the existing windows and discuss your specific needs—be it thermal efficiency, soundproofing, or both.
Custom Design and Manufacturing
Unlike off-the-shelf options, professional secondary glazing is custom-made to suit your windows. This ensures a precise fit, minimal visual impact, and optimal performance. The frames can be colour-matched to your décor, and you can choose from various styles, including horizontal sliders, hinged units, or lift-out panels.
Expert Installation
On installation day, the secondary glazing units are fitted to the interior side of your existing windows, in a position confirmed previously with the surveyor. Professional installers will ensure the frames are securely mounted, sealed, and aligned. This process typically requires minimal disruption, with most installations completed in a single day.
Finishing Touches and Aftercare
A quality installer will carry out final checks, clean the glazing, and provide maintenance advice.
In summary, a professional secondary glazing installation is a tailored, efficient process that combines expert design, craftsmanship, and careful fitting—delivering lasting comfort and performance for your home. Secondary glazing can be let down by its impracticability, but also can be designed to suit almost any type of primary glazing.
