As an experienced renovator, I know that installing new windows is an expensive process, and so it was really important to my partner and I to get the right style, material and durability for our home. After all, windows hugely impact both our home's kerb appeal, how quiet and spacious it feels as well as its energy efficiency.
And so as part of our mission to save energy at home and create a home that suits our lifestyle and needs, we needed to upgrade some of the glazing. While it would be nice to say I’m talking about upgrading double to triple glazing, our home only had single glazing when we bought it. A lot of the panes were cracked or broken and the timber was rotting from years of damp and high humidity. This also meant draughts, condensation and high energy bills galore. As we live in a Conservation Area too, the process was long and put a huge dent in our limited budget — so, one year on, was it worth it?
