Triple glazing for flats and apartments in Barnet
From the first measure to the handover pack, we handle flat and apartment triple glazing for homes in Barnet and the rest of Greater London.
Window replacement for flats, with the consents sorted first. Before replacing windows in a flat, check two things.
Winter light and glass choice in Barnet
By midsummer Barnet has about 16 h 40 min of daylight, but in December only around 7 h 48 min, with the noon sun at about 15°. Triple glazing keeps more heat in during those long, dark months; big south and west windows may suit solar-control glass for summer.

Rules for flats and apartments 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.
- Free survey and a written quote fixed for the specification
- Glass build-up and whole-window U-value on every quote
- Written handover pack at the end of the job
- Guarantees on frames, units and fitting in writing
Questions from Barnet
Can windows in a flat be fitted from inside?
Often yes, which avoids scaffolding. It depends on the window design and access, checked on survey.
Is triple glazing good for a flat on a busy road?
Yes, especially with an acoustic laminated pane, which makes the bigger difference to noise.

Yes. We arrange surveys and fitting in Barnet and across Greater London. Send your postcode and the windows or doors you want replaced, and we will book a free survey.
Do I need permission for flat and apartment triple glazing in Barnet?
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. Check whether your street is in a conservation area or covered by an Article 4 direction before changing the style.
