Rules for glass-only replacement 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.
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.
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.

Questions from Cleethorpes
How much does a triple glazed sealed unit cost?
Where a frame can take one, our guide starts at £145 fitted for a small unit, inc VAT. Published UK figures of about £90 to £220 per unit are mostly for double units; triple units cost more.
Why are my windows misting between the panes?
The seal around the unit has failed and moist air has got in. Only replacing the unit fixes it.
