Paxtons Home Improvements Limited has launched a new division dedicated to the supply and installation of the Granada secondary glazing range. All of our secondary glazing units are designed and manufactured to be installed discreetly alongside the existing window. This form of double glazing offers minimum disruption during installation, excellent insulation and high levels of noise reduction. Secondary double glazing is often an ideal solution for a listed building or a property in a sensitive conservation area.
We carry out comprehensive installations of secondary glazing to domestic and commercial properties based throughout Essex and East London. A cost effective and quickly installed alternative to double glazing, secondary glazing adds a single glazed layer of glass to the existing window frame, providing similar double-glazed benefits such as improved heat insulation with reduced outside noise and condensation. Secondary glazing can also be supplied and installed with acoustic glass, designed to cut back on noise even when next to busy roads or an airport, and it can also be added to many double glazed installations as tertiary glazing, creating three layers of glass for incredible acoustic insulation.
For those who live in listed buildings or conservation areas, secondary glazing could be the best or only option for upgrading nonperforming old windows. Some homes cannot have their original windows altered due to building regulations to retain the original appearance, or you may not want to get new windows installed so you don't spoil the heritage style. However, this doesn't mean you have to put up with a draughty house once winter arrives. Just because you don't want to adjust the exterior of your home, it doesn't mean you have to be without the benefits of double glazing.

The cavity or gap between an existing primary window and the secondary unit can make a significant difference to the level of noise insulation. Unlike sealed units where the two pieces of glass are rigidly coupled together, the primary and secondary windows act as independent barriers to the transmission of noise. Secondary glazing is an effective method of reducing noise pollution, whether you are looking to guard against noise, road traffic or to retain noise i.e pubs, clubs etc. By increasing the gap, otherwise known as the cavity, between the existing window and the secondary frame, the better the sound proofing becomes.
