Alu-clad timber triple glazed windows in Bishopbriggs
From the first measure to the handover pack, we handle alu-clad timber triple glazed windows for homes in Bishopbriggs and the rest of Glasgow and the Clyde.
The low-upkeep, high-performance frame many self-builders choose. Alu-clad (aluminium-clad) timber windows have a structural timber frame inside and a powder-coated aluminium cladding outside, glazed with a three-pane unit.
Winter light and glass choice in Bishopbriggs
By midsummer Bishopbriggs has about 17 h 36 min of daylight, but in December only around 6 h 58 min, with the noon sun at about 11°. Triple glazing keeps more heat in during those long, dark months; big south and west windows may suit solar-control glass for summer.

Rules for alu-clad timber windows 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.
Before ordering: 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
After the free survey you get a written quote naming the frame system, the glass build-up and the whole-window U-value for every item. Windows are made to order, then fitted, sealed and made good, one opening at a time.
