Winter light and glass choice in Coleraine
In Coleraine, midday sun in late December sits around 11° high, with roughly 7 h 08 min of daylight. For windows facing north or shaded by neighbours, cutting heat loss matters more than solar gain; on open south-facing glass, ask about a higher solar-gain unit.

Rules for timber windows in Northern Ireland
The rules for replacement windows in Northern Ireland are set by Technical Booklet F1 (2022): 1.6 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band C or better. Replacing windows or external doors does not need full plans or a building notice, but the work must still comply; enlarging an opening or other structural change needs building control approval.
Planning: Check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of windows or doors, and always for listed buildings, conservation areas and flats.
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
Questions from Coleraine
Can I get triple glazed timber sash windows?
Yes, though not every sash design can take a full-thickness triple unit. Where the box and sash sizes limit the unit, we tell you the U-value you will actually get.
Are timber windows warmer than uPVC?
They can be. Timber insulates well, and a deep timber frame with triple glass reaches whole-window U-values around 0.8 to 1.1, similar to good uPVC.
How long does it take to get triple glazed timber windows fitted in Coleraine?
After the survey, typical manufacture time is 6 to 10 weeks, and most homes are fitted in 1 to 4 days.
Do I need permission for triple glazed timber windows in Coleraine?
In Northern Ireland, check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of windows, and always for listed buildings and flats. Check whether your street is in a conservation area or covered by an Article 4 direction before changing the style.
