A second level of protection for your property – how it works
Secondary double-glazing effectively means adding another window inside your existing units. The secondary window sits within its own frame, fixed to the existing window. Because it’s considered a non-permanent, removable addition, secondary double-glazing is perfect for listed buildings and in instances when an existing window cannot be removed due to conservation reasons. For this reason, secondary glazing is recommended by English Heritage for use in Historic buildings, peace of mind for these customers across Reading.
These systems are easy to install and cost-effective, mitigating the price and time associated with a complete overhaul. They’re also ideal for combating trouble spots, such as colder or noisier areas, in both new and older buildings. Save money on energy bills and promote your comfort indoors – get a quote for a system from Somerville Glass and Windows Ltd.
