Glazing Tips
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Double Glazing?
Double glazing is a combination of two pieces of glass with a spacer in between. The spacer seals the space between the two panes of glass. The seal is important because it ensures that nothing can get in or get out. It provides much better insulation than single glazing.
What are the types of glass used in double glazing?
There are various types of glass that can be used in double glazing. These include tinted, laminated, opaque and low-emissivity glass.
Will I be able to save on my energy bills with double glazing?
Yes, you can save a lot on your energy bills with double glazing. This is because of its insulation capabilities. Less heat will escape from your property, and fewer cold draughts will find their way in.
What are the other benefits of installing double glazing?
- Energy efficient
- Retains more heat
- Decreased noise
- Guaranteed security
- Reduced condensation
What do you mean by uPVC?
uPVC is an abbreviation for unplasticised polyvinyl chloride. It is the most preferred material in the building industry because it is much cheaper than other materials and proven to be energy efficient. uPVC is the finest option for double glazing materials.
What are the advantages of using uPVC?
- Durable
- Recyclable
- Requires little maintenance
- Available in any colour and finish
- Long-lasting
Do you hire subcontractors to do the job?
No. We do not hire subcontractors. All of our glaziers are directly hired. This means that they have passed a series of assessments and completed their training. Thus, you can rest assured that all of our work is carried out to a high standard.
The uPVC windows I had installed last year have changed colour from white to yellow. What should I do?
Probably, the windows installed are of low quality. They therefore need to be replaced. At Top Glazing, all the products we install are of high quality. You will never encounter a problem like this when we do the job.
