Winter light in Edinburgh

In Edinburgh, winter days are short and the sun stays low, around 11° at noon in late December. Triple glazing suits a climate like this; solar-control glass is rarely needed except on large panes facing south or west.

Rules in Scotland

The rules for replacement windows in Scotland are set by the Building Standards Technical Handbook (Domestic), section 6: 1.6 W/m²K. Replacing a window or door, frame and all, does not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards.

Planning: Since May 2024, replacement windows on houses are widely permitted development, including in many conservation areas, with front elevations expected to match the existing closely; your council tells you if prior notification applies. Flats outside conservation areas generally need permission only if the opening size changes. Listed buildings need listed building consent.

How it works

The surveyor measures every opening, checks ventilation, escape windows and safety-glass zones, and talks through styles. Your written quote lists each item with its glass build-up and U-value, and the price is fixed for that specification.

  • Free survey and a written quote fixed for the specification
  • Glass build-up and whole-window U-value on every quote
  • Written handover pack at the end of the job
  • Guarantees on frames, units and fitting in writing

Questions

How long does fitting take in Edinburgh?

Most homes are fitted in 1 to 4 days once the windows are made; manufacture takes about 4 to 12 weeks depending on the frame.

Are there grants for triple glazing in Scotland?

Rarely. Most schemes fund insulation and heating before glazing. See our regulations and funding guide for the current position.

Which frame is best for a house in Edinburgh?

It depends on the house rather than the town: uPVC for value, aluminium for slim frames and big panes, timber for period homes, alu-clad timber for low upkeep. Our surveyor will talk through the options.

How much does triple glazing cost in Edinburgh?

Our guide prices are the same UK-wide: triple glazed uPVC windows from £695 each and a 3-bed semi from £9,395, fitted and inc VAT.
