Secondary Glazing across West Midlands
Secondary Glazing is one of those jobs in West Midlands where the survey decides everything. Given the Victorian industrial terraces, interwar municipal estates and large commercial frontages that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. The other factor is urban heat retention with high particulate load, which is why surface soiling accelerating coating failure on street-facing elevations is the most common reason people call us. The part that matters is internal glazing that improves comfort without touching the original.
A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Something particular to this area: dense commercial stock means shopfront and contract joinery volumes are high.
Towns covered
Repair before replace
If the original timber is sound we keep it. It is cheaper and it is better.
Draughts and rattle gone
Brush seal systems that stop movement without making the sash stiff.
Honest condition survey
Including telling you when a window is genuinely beyond saving.
Most work in a day
Draught proofing and cord renewal are usually same-day, room by room.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover West Midlands?
Yes. We cover the whole of West Midlands including Birmingham, Coventry, Wolverhampton, Solihull and the surrounding villages. Dense commercial stock means shopfront and contract joinery volumes are high. Because urban heat retention with high particulate load, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
How do you handle glazing?
Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.
Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
