Secondary Glazing Installation — What to Expect

Secondary glazing installation is one of the least disruptive window improvements available. Most installations are completed in a single day, require no wet trades, and leave no mess. Here is what to expect.

Stage 1 — Free Quotation

All we need is a photograph of each window and basic dimensions. We provide a free written quote without visiting your property.

Stage 2 — Manufacturing

All units manufactured to measure. Lead times: 2–4 weeks for standard systems, 4–6 weeks for bespoke.

Stage 3 — Installation Day

The team arrives with all materials. Dust sheets protect window surrounds. Subframe fixed to reveal or frame face. Unit fitted and tested. Area cleaned. A single window takes 1–2 hours. A whole house typically takes one or two days.

Stage 4 — Aftercare

Glass cleaned with standard glass cleaner. Aluminium frames wiped with damp cloth. Woolpile seals occasionally replaced after several years. All installations backed by comprehensive guarantee.

How Disruptive?

No wet trades, no structural work, no redecorating needed. Rooms remain usable throughout and can be occupied immediately after installation.
