From Southend-on-Sea to Harwich, we arrange triple glazed aluminium windows for homes across Essex, with every quote fixed for the specification shown.

Rules in England
The rules for replacement windows in England are set by Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments): 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better. Replacement windows are a controlled fitting. A competent person scheme installer (such as FENSA or Certass) self-certifies the work and notifies the council within 30 days; otherwise a building control body approves it.
Before ordering: Replacing windows on a house is normally permitted development if the new ones look similar. New upper-floor windows in a side wall must be obscure glazed and fixed, or open only above 1.7 m. Flats and maisonettes have no householder permitted development rights, so a change that alters their appearance needs planning permission. An Article 4 direction in a conservation area may mean permission is needed, and 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 aluminium windows suit older houses?
They suit many 20th-century homes well. For Victorian and Georgian houses, or conservation areas, timber or heritage-style frames are usually a better match.
Can aluminium windows take triple glazing?
Yes, and the strength of aluminium suits the extra weight. The system needs a glazing rebate deep enough for the unit, which we check on survey.
Are aluminium windows cold?
Not if the frame has a proper thermal break. Modern thermally broken systems with triple glass reach whole-window U-values around 1.0, well inside the Building Regulations limit for replacement windows.
Do you cover all of Essex?
We arrange surveys and fitting across Essex.
Do I need permission for triple glazed aluminium windows in England?
In England, like-for-like replacements on a house are normally permitted development; flats need permission if the change alters their appearance, Article 4 areas may need permission, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
