Triple glazing for new builds and self-builds in East Kilbride
New-build triple glazing for homes in East Kilbride: measured on a free survey, made to order and fitted by installation teams working for us across Lanarkshire.
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 East Kilbride
On the shortest day, East Kilbride gets about 7 h 00 min of daylight and the midday sun reaches only about 11° 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 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
After the free survey you get a written quote naming the frame system, the glass build-up and the whole-window U-value for every item. Windows are made to order, then fitted, sealed and made good, one opening at a time.
- 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 East Kilbride
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.
Is triple glazing mandatory for new builds?
No. Neither the current rules nor the Future Homes Standard make it compulsory. Triple glazing helps meet the overall energy target.
Do I need permission for new-build triple glazing in East Kilbride?
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 East Kilbride?
Yes. We arrange surveys and fitting in East Kilbride and across Lanarkshire. Send your postcode and the windows or doors you want replaced, and we will book a free survey.
