Adding double glazing to your conservatory will turn it into a living space that can be used all year round. 

Better Insulation

When compared to single glazing, double glazing gives you better heat and sound insulation. It is made of two glass panes with a layer of Argon gas in between, creating an effective thermal barrier. During the winter, double glazing keeps cold air out and the warm air in, resulting in home. Similarly, in the summer, your home will be cooler, reducing the need to spend on air conditioning bills. 

Double glazing will help reduce your carbon footprint so you will do your bit for the environment. At T&K Home Improvements, feel assured that your double glazing is sustainable, with some of the lowest U values on the market. 

Increased Energy Efficiency

Double glazing will make your home more energy efficient. This means that warm air is kept in during colder months, ensuring you don’t have to spend much on energy bills. We understand that the cost of living crisis is having a big impact on homeowners, so feel assured our double-glazing products can help save money in the long term. 

Enhanced Soundproofing 

Double glazing gives you fantastic insulation of sound. The two layers of glass act as a robust barrier that dampens the sound and makes it quieter. It is ideal if you live in a loud neighbourhood or a busy main road because it allows you to stay in a peaceful space without distractions. 

What’s more, this helps keep your conversations indoors, so the noise doesn’t travel outside. Enjoy a safer and quieter home when you choose double glazing.  

Improved Security

Double glazed windows and doors offer enhanced security compared to single glazing. The two layers of glass can make it difficult for intruders to break through, ensuring you and your loved ones stay safe. Furthermore, modern double glazing includes advanced locking systems and reinforced frames. Investing in double glazing can give you peace of mind knowing you will be better protected against potential break ins. 

We offer a bespoke service at T&K Home Improvements which lets you bolster your security even more. Opt for laminated glass which gives you a robust plastic barrier that holds the structure together. The glass is shatterproof, so it’s unlikely to get damaged by forced entry or strong winds.

Reduced Condensation 

Condensation occurs when warm air comes into contact with a cold surface, leading to the formation of water droplets. Double glazing reduces condensation by creating a thermal barrier between the inside and outside of your home. This not only helps to maintain a clear view but also reduces mould and draught spots.

Increased Property Value

Installing double glazing can significantly increase your property’s value. Potential buyers are often attracted to homes with double glazed windows and doors due to their numerous benefits. Double glazing is a desirable feature that can improve your home’s market value. Choosing double glazing will provide a better investment in the long term.
