Triple glazed tilt and turn windows in Ellon
From the first measure to the handover pack, we handle triple glazed tilt and turn windows for homes in Ellon and the rest of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
A strong choice for flats, upper floors and escape windows. A tilt and turn window opens inwards in two ways: tilted at the top for secure ventilation, or swung fully open like a door for cleaning and escape.
Winter light and glass choice in Ellon

Rules for tilt and turn windows in Scotland
The rules for replacement windows in Scotland are set by the Building Standards Technical Handbook (Domestic), section 6: 1.6 W/m²K. Replacing a window or door, frame and all, does not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards.
Planning: Since May 2024, replacement windows on houses are widely permitted development, including in many conservation areas, with front elevations expected to match the existing closely; your council tells you if prior notification applies. Flats outside conservation areas generally need permission only if the opening size changes. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
How it works
The surveyor measures every opening, checks ventilation, escape windows and safety-glass zones, and talks through styles. Your written quote lists each item with its glass build-up and U-value, and the price is fixed for that specification.
- 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
