Coupled triple glazed frames with bay poles where the load needs them. A bay window projects out from the wall in angled sections; a bow window curves in more, shallower sections.
Winter light and glass choice in Arbroath
In Arbroath, midday sun in late December sits around 10° high, with roughly 6 h 49 min of daylight. For windows facing north or shaded by neighbours, cutting heat loss matters more than solar gain; on open south-facing glass, ask about a higher solar-gain unit.

Rules for bay and bow windows 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

That is a structural and planning change, not a like-for-like replacement. Ask and we will explain what it involves.
