Membership allows approved installers to self-certify that their work complies with Building Regulations, without the homeowner needing to apply to the local council. The Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) is the trade association for the glazing industry, and GGF membership indicates a company that subscribes to its code of conduct.

How the Number and Size of Windows Affects Cost in Borehamwood
The total number of windows and doors being replaced is one of the most significant factors in the overall cost of a glazing project. Replacing a single window is proportionally more expensive per unit than replacing all windows in a property at once, as the installer can complete the work in a single visit and spread fixed costs such as survey time, access equipment and disposal across the whole job.
Window size also affects cost directly — larger openings require larger glass units and stronger frames, both of which cost more to manufacture and are heavier to handle. Bay windows and shaped or arched openings require bespoke manufacturing and are typically priced at a premium. Getting an accurate count and measurement before requesting quotes will help you compare proposals on a like-for-like basis.
Frequently Asked Questions — Glass and Frame Types in Borehamwood
uPVC is the most common and cost-effective frame material, requiring minimal maintenance and available in a range of colours and finishes. Aluminium offers slimmer profiles and greater strength for large openings, at higher cost. Timber provides a traditional aesthetic and can be repaired and repainted indefinitely, but requires regular maintenance.
Building Regulations Part N requires safety glazing in locations where human impact is likely — such as large low-level panes, glass adjacent to doors and glass in doors. Toughened glass fractures into small, relatively harmless fragments. Laminated glass holds together when broken. Your installer will specify the correct type for each location.
Argon is a denser gas than air, which reduces convection within the double-glazing unit and improves its thermal performance modestly. Most quality double-glazing units are argon-filled as standard and the cost difference is minimal.
Low-E glass has a microscopic metallic coating that reflects heat back into the room rather than allowing it to escape through the glass. It is standard in modern double-glazing units and significantly improves thermal performance compared to uncoated glass.
