Double glazing provides better insulation for your windows,reduces power consumption, warmer in winter and cozier in summer, it also reduces noise by damping sound waves.
If you are interested I do double glazing retro fit in timber and aluminium windows and offer a free friendly quote, contact Chris 021642428.

Jean worked incredibly hard to achieve what I wanted, and was able to teach me, in a straightforward way, how to manage and add improvements to my website myself.We had a few minor and major crises along the way (due to external circumstances) which Jean took in her stride and did her utmost to resolve, sacrificing many hours of her own time I am sure. She continues to be really available for support and advice - I cannot recommend her highly enough!" - a review given by Georgina of Mainly Natives Plant Nursery.
