Secondary Glazing Specialists in St Albans
Secondary Glazing for St Albans' Medieval, Georgian & Victorian Homes
St Albans has one of the best-preserved historic centres in the Home Counties, from the timber-framed and Georgian houses of Fishpool Street and St Peter's Street around the cathedral to the Victorian and Edwardian terraces of Fleetville and Clarence Park. Many of these homes sit in conservation areas where replacing original windows is discouraged. Secondary glazing keeps the original frames, stops draughts and cuts noise from the Thameslink line and the A1081 without changing anything outside.

Working in St Albans
St Albans City and District Council protects a large historic core around the cathedral and Verulamium, and its guidance favours repairing original timber windows over replacement. Internal, reversible secondary glazing is the approach most often accepted for listed and conservation area homes in the city.

What We Solve in St Albans
Small-Paned Historic Sashes
The cathedral quarter's Georgian sashes have fine glazing bars and shallow reveals. We use slimline units that sit inside the reveal so the original window is still the first thing you see.
Thameslink & Main Road Noise
Homes near the Midland Main Line, the A1081 and Hatfield Road get steady rail and traffic noise. 10.8mm acoustic laminate with a wide air gap is our standard specification for these frontages.
Uneven Period Openings
Older St Albans houses rarely have square window openings. Every unit is made to the survey measurements, so seals close tightly even where the frame has moved over the centuries.
