Rules in Scotland
In Scotland, replacement windows must meet 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.
- Every opening measured, including escape and vent needs
- Frames rated for the weight of triple glass
- Old windows removed and taken away
- Each opening closed up the same day
Questions
Do trickle vents let noise in?
Standard vents can. Acoustic trickle vents are designed to keep ventilation while reducing sound.
How much extra is acoustic glass?
Comparing our guide prices, acoustic glass adds about £50 to £200 a window, inc VAT, depending on size.
Does triple glazing reduce noise more than double?
A little: the third pane adds about 3 dB, sometimes less. Laminated acoustic glass makes the bigger difference, whether in a double or triple unit.
