Addressing Your Concerns
Do I Need Listed Building Consent?
Generally yes, for any alterations to a listed building's character. Window replacement usually counts. We can advise and help with applications.
Can uPVC Be Used in Listed Buildings?
Some conservation officers accept high-quality heritage-specification uPVC. Others require timber. We'll advise on what your specific listing allows.
What About Secondary Glazing?
Secondary glazing (an additional window fitted inside the existing one) is often the preferred solution for listed buildings. It doesn't alter the original fabric and usually doesn't need consent.
Can I Replace Windows in a Listed Building?
It depends on your listing grade and local conservation officer. Grade II listed buildings may allow sympathetic replacement. Grade I and II* buildings typically require like-for-like repairs. We advise on your specific situation.
