Triple glazing for new builds and self-builds in Weymouth
From the first measure to the handover pack, we handle new-build triple glazing for homes in Weymouth and the rest of Dorset.
Window and door packages priced from drawings and fitted to your programme. Triple glazing is not required by Building Regulations for new homes, but it helps a new dwelling meet its overall energy target.
Winter light and glass choice in Weymouth
On the shortest day, Weymouth gets about 7 h 58 min of daylight and the midday sun reaches only about 16° above the horizon. Low winter sun means north-facing rooms here gain little solar heat, which is where triple glazing’s lower heat loss helps most.

Rules for new builds and self-builds in England
For a new home in England, windows and doors are approved as part of the build’s own building control application, not as replacements: the limiting value is 1.6 W/m²K, with 1.2 used for the design reference. The house itself needs planning permission.
VAT: supply and fitting by a VAT-registered contractor in the construction of a new home is normally zero-rated, so new-build guide prices are shown without VAT; supply-only purchases carry 20% VAT, which self-builders can usually reclaim through HMRC’s DIY housebuilders scheme.
How it works
You will know exactly what you are buying: the quote states the unit build-up, frame, finish, fitting work and how Building Regulations compliance is handled. On fitting day each opening is replaced and closed up before the team moves on.
- 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
