Secondary Glazing in London

About 40 million of sash windows in United Kingdom needed repairs to overcome the problem of draughts sound proofing, and insulation. London is no exception as it has a big no. of Victorian and Georgian properties with attractive sash windows. With rising traffic, these buildings are facing problems with noise, dirt and draughts. Secondary Glazing has come out as a popular and reliable solution as it provides noise insulation, especially when the windows are facing the busy streets with lots of traffic, heat insulation and enhanced home security.

Secondary Glazing is actually introduction of additional internal glazed window thus making the window as a set of two or more sheets of glass spaced apart and sealed so as to trap air in between. The units are custom made to match the existing window thus making it double glazed. In most of the cases the existing window remains unaltered and curtains& blinds unaffected.

It is less expensive than full replacement of windows and a professional hand is required to do this task. Secondary glazing is not only cost efficient, but it is also sometimes the only option for listed buildings or those within a conservation area. A variety of double glazing products are available in market ranging from UPVC, timber and aluminum.

Besides sound proofing the secondary glazing also improves the thermal insulation, draught proofing and becomes a blockade to air bourn dust and harmful Ultraviolet rays. Scientific studies have proven that it reduces the noise levels by 75-95% as more than 90 percent enters the building from doors and windows.

Not only the residential buildings but many schools in London are opting for Secondary Glazing as many of them are situated near busy roads or flight paths into major airports. The noise survey which was carried out around 86 % schools in London revealed the truth that they were constantly exposed to a noise level of 60 dB LAeq. Afterwards many schools have opted for secondary glazing in their classroom windows.

All listed buildings require a high standard of workmanship and expertise for clean, fast and effective secondary glazing and there is a no. of double glazing firms which offer services in London but very few of them, like City Sound, offer guarantee on both workmanship and materials.
