Secondary Glazing Specialists in Harrow
Secondary Glazing for Harrow on the Hill, Pinner Village & Metroland Semis
Harrow is defined by two contrasting heritages: the medieval hilltop village of Harrow on the Hill, with its famous school and Georgian houses, and the archetypal 1920s and 30s Metroland suburbs of Pinner, Stanmore, Hatch End and Rayners Lane that grew along the Metropolitan line. Both have windows worth keeping — Georgian sashes on the Hill, leaded casements and bays in the suburbs — and both lose heat badly. Secondary glazing is the answer to each.

What We Solve in Harrow
Harrow School Environs
Properties around the Hill sit in one of outer London's most protected settings. Our fully reversible installations are accepted where any external alteration would be refused.
Leaded Metroland Casements
Pinner and Stanmore semis are full of small leaded lights that define their character. Secondary glazing insulates the whole window while keeping every lead line visible.
Metropolitan Line Proximity
Homes beside the Metropolitan and Jubilee lines experience frequent train noise. Our acoustic glass specification addresses the rumble that thin casement glass transmits.

Harrow Homes, Streets and Noise: What We See on Survey
Harrow on the Hill is the historic heart of the borough, with Georgian and Victorian houses around the High Street and Harrow School, many of them listed. Pinner has a medieval village centre with timber-framed and Georgian houses, surrounded by large 1920s and 1930s detached houses. Much of the rest of the borough was built as Metroland in the interwar years, so leaded-light casements and bay windows are very common. These need slim hinged or lift-out panels that preserve the leaded glass.
The A40 runs along the southern edge of the borough, and the A404 and A409 are busy through routes. Rail noise is significant: the Metropolitan line runs above ground from Harrow on the Hill to Pinner, and the West Coast Main Line and Bakerloo and Overground lines run through Harrow and Wealdstone. Some homes also hear Northolt aircraft. For homes near these routes we fit acoustic laminate, and elsewhere most clients want to improve warmth.
Harrow has 28 conservation areas, including Harrow on the Hill, Pinner and Pinnerwood Park, and some have Article 4 directions that protect leaded windows. Secondary glazing keeps those windows in place, so it is usually the best option, and we prepare drawings for listed building consent where needed.
