Once New Life Sash Window co have finished working on your windows our recommended team of specialist decorators will take over. One side of the window beading is left detachable so that the windows can be easily removed and the decorating can begin.

We can offer acoustic laminate glass with all double glazed windows. Acoustic laminate glass is designed to reduce the unwanted noise from the outside world so that your living and working spaces can be as peaceful as possible.

Yes, using our tried and tested methods we can remove the original glazing bars and reuse them to cap the ‘duplex’ inserted double glazed unit. This helps to keep the traditional aesthetic and charm.

When restoring, converting or replacing we offer obscured glass for the rooms in your home that require an extra level of privacy.

We offer the ‘Brighton lock’ as a part of our draught proof and service package. This can be further enhanced by installing a pair of ‘security sash stops’. Both of these come in a range of finishes and add to the style and character of the window. The ‘security sash stops’ are fitted just above the meeting rail to give you peace of mind when leaving your window open and unattended. It is also useful for families with younger children, to ensure they are safe when the windows are open.

We also offer British standard safety glass as an option when restoring your windows. This has been specifically designed to reduce the risk of an accident by impact, fracture or shattering.

This depends on the property and the location of the windows.

Grade 1 listed buildings are usually refused permission.

Grade 2 front of house can be tricky but planners are gradually coming around to accepting new double glazing as both the technology and the need for the service increases. Back of house is usually accepted.

We always advise approaching your local planning authority for permission before deciding to install double glazing in your listed building.

This can be done through the direct.gov.uk website.
