Secondary Glazing in Parson Cross, Sheffield
Homes around Parson Cross Park in Parson Cross tend to share the same problem: cold steel frames driving both condensation and high heating bills. Because Parson Cross sits within the wider Sheffield S1 catchment, our survey team can usually be with you inside a week.
What Parson Cross homes typically need
Very large interwar estate on the northern plateau.
Typical window: original steel casements in many homes.
Most common brief: cold steel frames driving both condensation and high heating bills.
Parson Cross isn't formally protected, so we can spec on performance alone — Low-E soft-coat glass and 6.4 mm laminated as standard.

Common questions
Can I still open the original window?
Yes — every sliding, hinged and lift-out unit is designed to move clear so you can operate the primary window behind it.
Can Low-E glass be combined with acoustic laminated?
Yes — most heavy specifications combine both, so you get acoustic gain and thermal gain in the same install.
How is the quote calculated?
We survey and template every opening on site, then quote in writing per opening — no per-square-metre pricing that hides oversize charges.
Is there a warranty?
Yes — 10 years on the manufacture and installation, and a manufacturer's warranty on the glass units.
How much noise reduction can I realistically expect?
With a 100 mm cavity and 6.4 mm laminated secondary glass we routinely measure 40–47 dB Rw — enough to drop main-road traffic to a soft background hum.
