Rules 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.
Planning: 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.
- 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
Is alu-clad timber worth the extra cost?
It is for many self-builders and people planning to stay for decades, because the outside needs almost no upkeep and the timber inside looks warm. For a quick replacement on a typical semi, uPVC or aluminium give better value.
Can I choose different colours inside and out?
Yes. The aluminium can be any RAL colour and the timber inside can be natural, stained or painted.
Do alu-clad windows suit Passivhaus builds?
Many alu-clad systems are designed for low-energy homes. If you need Passive House Institute certified components, ask and we will price systems that hold that certification.
Do you cover all of County Down?
We arrange surveys and fitting across County Down.
Do I need permission for alu-clad timber triple glazed windows in Northern Ireland?
In Northern Ireland, check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of windows, and always for listed buildings and flats.
