Rules for acoustic triple glazing in Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland requires replacement windows to achieve 1.6 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band C or better, which good triple glazing passes comfortably. Replacing windows or external doors does not need full plans or a building notice, but the work must still comply; enlarging an opening or other structural change needs building control approval.
Before ordering: Check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of windows or doors, and always for listed buildings, conservation areas and flats.
How it works
We start with a survey, not a sales pitch: measurements, the structure above any bays, trickle-vent needs and escape windows. The quote that follows fixes the price, and anything unexpected on the day is agreed with you first.
