Benefits of fitting new double glazed units
As with any decision, you have to weigh up the benefits against the drawbacks to come up with a solution that is right for you. We can help you by clearly defining what those benefits and drawbacks are.
Double Glazed Units
Low Cost
Replacing the glass is the most cost-effective solution as the replacement double glazed units can be measured and fitted, as and when required. This reduces the cost of the expensive alternative to replace the whole window casement.
The high quality ultra tough double glazed units start from £50 per panel. To give you an indication of our experience, we have worked on specialist commercial projects with units up to £3,000 per panel.
Added Security
A broken, misted or cracked window stands out as a sign of low maintenace and poor security. Quickly fitting new double glazed glass panels will remove the spoilt view and remove the vulnerability.
We have an article relating to Window Security in our Advice Section.
