Triple glazed tilt and turn windows in Caernarfon
From the first measure to the handover pack, we handle triple glazed tilt and turn windows for homes in Caernarfon and the rest of Gwynedd.
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 Caernarfon
Winter days in Caernarfon are short: about 7 h 32 min of daylight on 21 December, with the sun peaking near 13°. That low angle reaches deep into south-facing rooms, so we match the glass to each elevation rather than using one spec for the whole house.

Rules for tilt and turn windows in Wales
The rules for replacement windows in Wales are set by Approved Document L for Wales (2022 edition, with 2024 amendments): 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better. As in England, replacement windows are a controlled fitting: a competent person scheme installer self-certifies the work, or building control approves it.
Before ordering: Householder permitted development rules do not cover flats, and councils can remove rights with Article 4 directions. Listed buildings need listed building consent. Check with your council before changing the style or material.
How it works
We start with a survey, not a sales pitch: measurements, the structure above any bays, trickle-vent needs and escape windows. The quote that follows fixes the price, and anything unexpected on the day is agreed with you first.
- 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
