The project in Harpenden, Hertfordshire involved upgrading original sash windows by replacing single glazing with vacuum insulated glass (VIG) units and refurbishing the window frames. The refurbishment included installing draught-proofing seals to improve thermal efficiency.
Reglazing sash windows offer several advantages, especially when using modern double glazing like vacuum-insulated glass (VIG). Firstly, it significantly enhances thermal efficiency, helping to reduce energy bills by minimizing heat loss.
Reglazing also preserves the aesthetic and historical value of original windows, maintaining the character of a property.
Additionally, it is more cost-effective compared to full window replacement, allowing homeowners to upgrade their windows without the higher costs associated with new installations. Furthermore, draught-proofing seals added during reglazing improve comfort by reducing drafts and external noise.
These combined benefits make reglazing a smart choice for homeowners looking to balance heritage preservation with modern energy efficiency.
Our customer was delighted with the final result of the sash window refurbishment. The project successfully maintained the original aesthetic of the windows while significantly improving their functionality and energy efficiency.
By opting for reglazing and refurbishing instead of installing entirely new windows, the customer achieved substantial cost savings. This approach not only preserved the character of their home but also provided modern benefits such as improved insulation and reduced drafts.
The successful completion of the project exemplifies the advantages of choosing refurbishment over replacement.
