Working in Hereford

Hereford — a small cathedral city in rural Herefordshire — combines black-and-white medieval architecture with Georgian conservation streets and a modest modern centre. We handle the full range of heritage glazing across HR1-HR4, with timber sash window restoration and listed-building consents featuring prominently.

For acoustic glazing in Hereford, the dominant noise source is usually traffic or rail rather than aircraft — though we still get enquiries from properties on flight approach corridors several miles from the nearest airport. Our standard acoustic double glazing reduces external noise by 38-42 dB, and our triple-glazed asymmetric specifications hit 48-52 dB for properties on the busiest West Midlands roads. Most commonly we're working across HR1 and HR4 postcodes.

Our process

How we deliver in Hereford

01

Heritage-sensitive survey

We measure existing reveal depths and assess the primary window's condition. Our surveys are accepted by listed-building officers and planning departments.

02

Bespoke manufacture

Each unit is made to fit your exact reveal — slim aluminium frames in white, brown, black or RAL-matched colours. Glass options include acoustic laminated and Low-E thermal.

03

Discreet installation

Installed entirely from inside the property with no disruption to the original window. Most installations are completed in a single day.
