Whole-house triple glazing in Castle Douglas
Homes in Castle Douglas can have whole-house triple glazing supplied and fitted, with surveys arranged across Dumfries and Galloway including DG7.
One survey, one fitting team, one matched look. Whole-house triple glazing means replacing every window, and usually the external doors, in one job.
Winter light and glass choice in Castle Douglas
Winter days in Castle Douglas are short: about 7 h 11 min of daylight on 21 December, with the sun peaking near 12°. 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 whole-house replacement in Scotland
In Scotland, replacement windows must meet 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
