Single vs double glazing: pros and cons

Choosing between single and double glazing depends on your needs, budget, and property type. Here’s how they compare:

  • Single Glazed Windows:
    • Pros: Lower upfront cost and suitable for period properties or rooms where insulation is less critical.
    • Cons: Poor insulation compared to double glazing, leading to higher heating bills and less soundproofing.
    • Tips: Insulating single glazed windows with draft-proofing materials can improve their efficiency.
  • Double Glazed Windows:
    • Pros: Excellent insulation, reducing heat loss, energy bills, and outside noise. They also add value to your home.
    • Cons: Higher initial cost compared to single glazing and may not be suitable for homes in conservation areas.

How much does it cost to install double/single glazed windows?

The cost of window installation depends on the type of glazing, size, and materials:

  • Single Glazed Windows: Installation costs typically range from £100 to £300 per window, depending on size and style.
  • Double Glazed Windows: Costs for double glazing range from £350 to £800 per window, with variations based on frame material (e.g., uPVC, wood, or aluminium). Larger or bespoke designs may cost more.

I had some fencing replaced, some crazy paving taken up and gravel put down and a gate erected by these guys. The work was done to a great standard with minimum fuss and in a timely fashion. They do not use any sub-contractors so you know who you are dealing with throughout the project. The site was left clean and tidy too so I am more than happy to recommend SNC Building and Maintenance Service for similar jobs.

I have been truly impressed with Adrian and his team. They demonstrated a vast amount of experience, were accommodating of my last minute changes, and there were no hidden costs. We are very happy with the outcome and the quality of our renovation work and will most certainly be calling on AWA again for the next project! It did take a little longer than had hoped; but this was mostly due to me making changes to the design! A special thanks to John for being a true legend and master of all trades!

I had a total renovation throughout my flat including a new Kitchen and Bathroom fitting. I found Charlie to be excellent, always answered the phone and always was on site when we arranged to meet. Any problems or questions were dealt with speedily. The men on site were very hard working, always on time and worked hard to a very high quality. Also very happy to discuss options and adapt as we went through. Very pleased with my new home!
