Triple glazed sash windows in Birmingham
Triple glazed sash windows for homes in Birmingham: measured on a free survey, made to order and fitted by installation teams working for us across the West Midlands.
Honest advice on which sashes can take a full triple unit. A sash window has one or two sashes that slide up and down in a box frame.
Winter light and glass choice in Birmingham
By midsummer Birmingham has about 16 h 50 min of daylight, but in December only around 7 h 39 min, with the noon sun at about 14°. 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 sash windows in England
England 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. 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.
Planning: 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.

Questions from Birmingham
Will triple glazing make my sashes heavy to lift?
The balances are sized for the sash weight, so they should slide smoothly. Heavier sashes use stronger balances or weights.
How much do triple glazed sash windows cost?
Our guide starts at £1,295 for a small uPVC sash, fitted and inc VAT. Timber sashes cost more; UK quotes for timber triple sashes run past £3,000 each.
How long does it take to get triple glazed sash windows fitted in Birmingham?
After the survey, typical manufacture time is 6 to 10 weeks, and most homes are fitted in 1 to 4 days.
