Types of Replacement Windows Available
Modern window replacement offers numerous options to suit different property types, architectural styles, and performance requirements. UPVC windows remain the most popular choice, offering excellent insulation, low maintenance, and affordability in various styles including casement, tilt and turn, and sliding sash. Aluminum windows provide sleek, contemporary aesthetics with slim frames and exceptional durability, ideal for modern properties and commercial applications. Timber windows offer traditional charm and authenticity, particularly suited to period properties and conservation areas, with modern treatments providing improved longevity. Composite windows combine materials for optimal performance, offering the appearance of timber with the low maintenance of UPVC.
Energy Efficiency and Performance
Modern replacement windows deliver significant improvements in energy efficiency compared to older installations. Current building regulations require windows to achieve minimum energy ratings, with A-rated windows offering the best performance. Double glazing with low-emissivity coatings and argon gas filling provides excellent insulation, reducing heat loss and lowering energy bills. Triple glazing offers even better performance for properties in exposed locations or where maximum efficiency is desired. The glaziers we connect you with can advise on the most appropriate glazing specification for your property, balancing performance, cost, and aesthetic considerations.
The Replacement Process Explained
Professional window replacement follows a systematic process to ensure quality results. Initial consultation involves assessing your current windows, discussing requirements, taking precise measurements, and recommending suitable options. Manufacturing typically takes 4-8 weeks for custom windows, with standard sizes sometimes available more quickly. Installation begins with careful removal of old windows, protecting surrounding areas from damage. New windows are fitted with proper sealing, insulation, and finishing, ensuring weathertight performance and smooth operation. Final checks verify correct operation, security, and appearance, with any necessary adjustments made before completion.
Planning and Building Regulations
Most window replacements in Teesside fall under permitted development and don't require planning permission. However, listed buildings, properties in conservation areas, or changes to window size or position may need approval. All replacement windows must comply with building regulations, particularly concerning thermal performance, ventilation, and safety glass requirements. The glaziers in our network understand local regulations and can advise on any permissions needed for your specific situation, ensuring your installation meets all legal requirements.
Investment and Value
Window replacement represents a significant investment that delivers multiple benefits. Costs vary depending on window type, size, materials, and quantity, with typical single window replacements ranging from £300-£1,200 and full house installations from £3,000-£8,000 for an average property. While initial costs may seem substantial, replacement windows typically pay for themselves through reduced energy bills, lower maintenance costs, and increased property value. Modern windows can last 20-30 years with minimal maintenance, making them a worthwhile long-term investment in your property's comfort, efficiency, and appearance.
