Services we install in Woodseats
Common questions
Is there a warranty?
Yes — 10 years on the manufacture and installation, and a manufacturer's warranty on the glass units.
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.
Will secondary glazing stop conversation-level noise from a neighbour?
Yes — mid-frequency speech is exactly what a laminated secondary pane damps hardest. We'd typically spec 6.8 mm on the secondary and keep the primary as-is.
Prefer to talk it through?
Give us five minutes on the phone and we'll steer you to the right specification.
