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
Wales 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. As in England, replacement windows are a controlled fitting: a competent person scheme installer self-certifies the work, or building control approves it.
Planning: 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
We start with a survey, not a sales pitch: measurements, the structure above any bays, trickle-vent needs and escape windows. The quote that follows fixes the price, and anything unexpected on the day is agreed with you first.
- 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 Llandrindod Wells
Can I put triple glazing in a listed building?
Usually not as a replacement. Listed building consent is needed and is often refused for original windows. Secondary glazing is the common alternative.
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.
Do you fit period-style triple glazing in Llandrindod Wells?
Yes. We arrange surveys and fitting in Llandrindod Wells and across Powys. Send your postcode and the windows or doors you want replaced, and we will book a free survey.
Do I need permission for period-style triple glazing in Llandrindod Wells?
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.
