Sealed frames
Multi-point seals close the gaps that let noise leak straight through old joinery.
Why uPVC
A quieter home, behind the right windows.
Road, street and neighbourhood noise pours through old single glazing. Sealed uPVC frames and the right glass cut it right down.
Why it’s loud
Old windows are the weak point for noise.
Sound travels through thin single glass and the gaps around tired old joinery — traffic, voices and wind straight into the room. Upgrade the glass and seal the frame, and you cut the path the noise takes to get in.
- Traffic and road noise
- Voices and neighbourhood noise
- Wind whistling through gaps
- Rattling, loose old sashes
How uPVC helps
Seal the gaps, upgrade the glass.
Double glazing
Two panes and a sealed gap dampen sound far better than single glazing.
The right glass
Laminated glass, or panes of different thicknesses, target traffic and low-frequency noise.
Good to know
Frequently asked questions
Will double glazing block out road noise?
It noticeably reduces it. Sealed uPVC frames and double glazing cut the noise that pours through old single glazing — though no window makes a busy road silent, and we’ll be honest about what to expect.
What glazing is best for noise?
For traffic and low-frequency noise, options like laminated glass or panes of differing thickness work better than a standard double-glazed unit. We spec to your situation.
Is the frame or the glass more important for noise?
Both. A poorly sealed frame undoes good glazing, so the seal and install matter as much as the glass itself.
Will quieter windows also be warmer?
Usually yes — the sealed frames and double glazing that cut noise also keep heat in, so you get both benefits together.
