Triple glazing for period homes and conservation areas in Newport, Gwent
From the first measure to the handover pack, we handle period-style triple glazing for homes in Newport, Gwent and the rest of Gwent.
Flush casements and sashes that councils tend to accept. In a conservation area, replacing windows on a house is often permitted development if the new windows look similar to the old ones, but councils can remove those rights with an Article 4 direction.

Rules for period homes and conservation areas in Wales
In Wales, replacement windows must meet 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better. As in England, replacement windows are a controlled fitting: a competent person scheme installer self-certifies the work, or building control approves it.
Before ordering: Householder permitted development rules do not cover flats, and councils can remove rights with Article 4 directions. Listed buildings need listed building consent. Check with your council before changing the style or material.
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 from Newport, Gwent
Will heritage-style frames look chunky with triple glass?
They can if the sections are too slim for a full triple unit. We will show you the frame sizes and, if needed, offer a slim high-performance unit instead.
Can I have triple glazing in a conservation area?
Often yes, if the new windows match the look of the old ones and there is no Article 4 direction. Check with your council first.
Do I need permission for period-style triple glazing in Newport, Gwent?
In Wales, householder rules do not cover flats, councils can use Article 4 directions, and listed buildings need consent. Check whether your street is in a conservation area or covered by an Article 4 direction before changing the style.
