Unique Reglazing Service
Condensation trapped between the two layers of glass in the double-glazed sealed units of the windows, doors, and conservatories – commonly known as blown, failed, or misty units – can make them appear dirty and neglected. Our reglazing service reglazes the double-glazed sealed units without removing the existing UPVC, aluminium, or wooden frames, saving you considerable costs and minimising inconvenience.

Reglazing service
We remove the offending double-glazed sealed unit and reglaze it with a brand new sealed unit that matches the other sealed unit in that frame. Once the new unit has been installed, you would not have known any work has been done (with the exception of wooden frames where the area around the beading will need painting or varnishing).
With the latest new generation of double-glazed sealed units, the glass has a very slight tint, and if this type of unit is installed alongside existing glazing that may have the old type of glass fitted, the tint could be noticed. We would therefore try to use the older type of glass units unless all the units in the same window are changed. All new double-glazed sealed units are installed into the existing frames as we believe there are very few existing frames that need completely changing.
Unlike our competitors (who will always try to convince you that you must change the complete existing window frames), we will only reglaze the glass part of the existing frames. To use a quote from Pilkington Glass, “Why to change the windows when you can just upgrade the glass”. All our double-glazed sealed units are manufactured for us, using the latest glass technology machinery and materials and are fully covered by the manufacturer’s guarantee, whilst the installation work is covered by our guarantee.
Most Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to change a unit?
On average, it takes around 30 minutes for PVCu and Aluminium frames and 60 minutes for wooden frames.
Will the frames get damaged?
Care is taken not to damage the beading when removing them from the frame; it is very unlikely to cause any damage to PVCu or Aluminium products. With wooden frames, the paint line between the bead and the frame needs to be scored before the beads are removed, typically using a “Don Carlos Knife”, so in most cases, only the area around the bead line needs repainting or varnished.
Will you take away the old double-glazed units?
Yes, we will dispose of the old units free of charge, as we are licenced by the Environment Agency to remove waste material from a work site.
Will the new double glazed units have a guarantee?
Yes, all new sealed units are fully guaranteed against faulty materials and workmanship by the manufacturing company, and we guarantee the installation workmanship.
Is a Self-Certification certificate be issued by you?
Self-Certification is only required if complete windows and doors are installed.
