Triple glazing for new builds and self-builds in Inverness
New-build triple glazing for homes in Inverness: measured on a free survey, made to order and fitted by installation teams working for us across the Highlands and Islands.
Triple glazing that gives your energy calculation headroom. 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 Inverness
In Inverness, midday sun in late December sits around 9° high, with roughly 6 h 35 min of daylight. For windows facing north or shaded by neighbours, cutting heat loss matters more than solar gain; on open south-facing glass, ask about a higher solar-gain unit.

Rules for new builds and self-builds in Scotland
For a new home in Scotland, windows and doors are part of the building warrant for the build: they must average 1.6 W/m²K across all windows, doors and rooflights, with no single unit worse than 3.3. 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.
- 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 Inverness
Do you supply performance data for SAP?
Yes. Your energy assessor gets the U-values, g-values and frame data for the systems quoted.
Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send your drawings or window schedule and we will price a package, then confirm sizes on site before manufacture.
Do I need permission for new-build triple glazing in Inverness?
In Scotland, a new home needs planning permission, and its windows and doors are approved through the build’s own Building Regulations application rather than as replacements.
Do you fit new-build triple glazing in Inverness?
Yes. We arrange surveys and fitting in Inverness and across the Highlands and Islands. Send your postcode and the windows or doors you want replaced, and we will book a free survey.
