Triple glazed bay and bow windows in Herefordshire
Homes across Herefordshire, including Hereford, Leominster and Ledbury, can have triple glazed bay and bow windows measured, made to order and fitted.
Warmer front rooms on 1930s and Victorian homes. A bay window projects out from the wall in angled sections; a bow window curves in more, shallower sections.

Rules in England
England requires replacement windows to achieve 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better, which good triple glazing passes comfortably. 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.
Planning: 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 bay windows need bay poles?
If the old frames carry load from above, yes. We check on survey and include support in the quote where needed.
Can I change a bay to a flat window?
That is a structural and planning change, not a like-for-like replacement. Ask and we will explain what it involves.
Will the bay be warmer?
Yes. Replacing old double or single glazing in a bay with triple glazing cuts heat loss through the glass and makes the glass surface warmer, so the room feels less draughty.
Do you cover all of Herefordshire?
We arrange surveys and fitting across Herefordshire.
Do I need permission for triple glazed bay and bow 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.
