Sash window restoration and reglazing in Norfolk

Scott James specialises in sash windows repair in Norfolk and covers all aspects of sash and casement window restoration.

Our comprehensive repair service renews and extends the life of rotten windows, and we also improve their energy efficiency by upgrading glazing.

Double glazing existing wooden sashes with VIG glazing

Our team can restore and reglaze your original wooden window sashes with VIG glazing, one of the latest developments in the glazing industry.

It outperforms triple glazing while being thin enough to fit even the narrowest frames.

In the image below, you can see a thermal comparison of all types of glazing available on the market and how VIG glazing compares to them.

Slimline double glazing is another option available for retrofit; however, VIG is a more durable and energy-efficient solution. It offers better value and is more cost-effective in the long run, as it requires less maintenance and does not need to be replaced as frequently.

All VIG glazing manufacturers offer a 15+ year guarantee and an expected service life of over 25 years.

Our team is an installer; we do not manufacture the glazing and are independent of the factories. We can install any suitable glazing into your windows, whether VIG or slimline. However, based on our years of experience and the feedback we receive from our customers, there are certain products we are able to recommend.

Old frames – new glazing

To achieve modern energy-efficiency standards, it is not necessary to replace your window frames. Existing frames can be refurbished, any rot repaired, and retrofitted with VIG glazing.

This is a cost-effective way to improve thermal efficiency, reduce energy bills, and minimise external noise, while also preserving original features—particularly important for listed properties or those located in conservation areas.
