Do you own your home?

No problem — you can still request quotes, but an installer will need the homeowner’s go‑ahead before any work is agreed.

We arrange window quotes for homeowners — owner‑occupiers and landlords.

Where your home loses heat

Heat leaves an older home from every surface, but the windows — and the draughts around them — are among the quickest wins. Efficient glazing and a well-sealed frame keep more warmth in the room, so your heating works less hard.

  • ~35%WallsThe biggest single loss in most homes, and the slowest to tackle.
  • ~25%Roof & loftCheaper to insulate, but nothing to do with your windows.
  • ~15%Draughts & gapsOften worst around old frames — you feel it as a cold edge by the glass.
  • ~10–15%Windows & glazingSingle glazing and tired seals let warmth straight out.

Proportions are broad, typical estimates and vary with a property’s age and construction.

Double or triple glazing?

Lower U‑values mean less heat escaping through the glass. For most UK homes, good A‑rated double glazing does the heavy lifting; triple glazing earns its keep in new-builds, exposed spots and rooms where noise is the real problem.

Typical whole-window U‑values (W/m²K) — lower is warmer.
GlazingTypical U-valueBest for
Single glazing~4.8Nothing — the baseline to beat
A-rated double~1.2–1.4Most homes, best all-round value
Triple glazing~0.8New-builds, exposed or noisy spots

“The back of the house was always freezing. Since the new windows went in it holds its warmth far better and the rooms feel calmer and quieter. The fitters were tidy and finished exactly when they said they would.”

“We’re on a busy road and the traffic noise used to carry straight through. It’s noticeably quieter now, and the draught by the bay window has gone completely. Straightforward from survey to fitting.”
