Our uPVC double glazing comes from the impressive Deceuninck collection. These windows and doors are precision engineered to offer fantastic performance as well as stunning aesthetics. The range includes contemporary designs as well as more traditional looks.
uPVC is popular for replacement windows thanks to its low material cost compared to other materials.

They’re an excellent choice for homeowners looking to lower their energy bills and reduce their home’s operating costs.

Aluminium Windows Ilford

Aluminium is also a 100% recyclable material. It’s an excellent choice if you’d prefer to make your home more environmentally friendly. With thermal break technology, aluminium frames are highly thermally efficient. A thermal break will prevent the natural conductive properties of metal, so heat is not transferred outside of your home. They use interlocking barriers to minimise air flow, so your home is more efficient. This means you won’t be paying more on your heating bills to compensate for the heat lost.
Our aluminium window range comes in a variety of styles and colours, and all come built with high-quality locking systems to keep your Ilford home safe and secure. You’ll be sure to find the perfect fit for your Ilford property with our team.
Sash Windows Ilford
Sash windows are traditional windows that consist of one or more movable panels, or “sashes,” that hold panes of glass together, usually in a frame.
These panels can slide vertically or horizontally to open, which provides a distinctive classic appearance and practical ventilation options. This is a great way to give your home a fresh feel, letting in both additional light and fresh air.
The vertical sliding mechanism of a sash window means that when your windows are open, they will not impede your indoor space or exterior clearance. Should you wish to, you can open both the top and bottom sashes to create a convection, letting hot air out at the top and cool air in at the bottom.

For older properties around Valentine’s Park, Ilford Lane and Monkham’s Avenue, sash windows are designed to replicate historic timber sliding sash windows, often featuring historical aspects such as run-through horns, deep bottom rails and specific profiles. Modern sash windows maintain historical aesthetics and incorporate advanced technology.
Therefore, you can maintain your home’s traditional charm and enjoy the benefits of modern windows. Double-glazed sash windows will create an energy-efficient environment. With greater energy efficiency, you will not have to worry about paying more on your energy bills to compensate for energy lost through old, inefficient windows.
The modern sash windows we install throughout Ilford also offer excellent security properties to keep your home safe. Modern windows are impact-resistant, double-glazed, and have multi-point locking systems, making your home more secure.
Maintain your home’s character and charm with our sash windows, installed throughout Ilford, and speak to our team to learn more about the various customisation options available.

A Variety of Doors Installed in Ilford
At Homeglaze, we offer our Ilford customers a combination of outstanding quality and value for money. Working with leading manufacturers ensures we can meet your every requirement, including offering cost-effective, high-performance windows and doors.
Composite Doors Ilford
Composite doors are widely known for their superior security, high levels of thermal efficiency, and low-maintenance durability. Lasting over 30 years, these doors combine materials such as Glass-Reinforced Plastic, Timber and Foam to create a structure with strength and aesthetic appeal.
These doors are engineered to be much thicker than uPVC and wooden doors, thanks to their rigid polyurethane cores. This is often combined with multi-point locking systems and anti-snap cylinders to make your home even more secure. In fact, here at Homeglaze, we can install our composite doors with a Sold Secure Diamond locking system, which will protect your home against even the most advanced break-in attempts.

The Glass Reinforced Plastic skin on a composite door will be incredibly durable, offering resistance to warping, fading, and peeling, whilst also protecting the inside of your property against moisture ingress.
Known for their energy efficiency, a composite door will provide an ‘A’ rated energy efficiency, which will block out cold draughts, keeping the cold air out and the warm air inside your home. Often, this leads to a noticeable reduction in your energy bills, particularly when you’re replacing an older, inefficient door.
For years, we have worked with Infinity and Solidor to provide our customers with a wide range of composite doors across the Ilford area. This means we can supply our composite doors in a wide range of colours and finishes, you can match the new door to your home perfectly to create the look and feel you’re looking for.
uPVC Doors Ilford
The uPVC doors we supply across Ilford are engineered with advanced materials to provide thermal insulation, security and minimal maintenance. All around, these doors are the perfect choice for homeowners looking for both style and longevity. uPVC is a versatile material that is resistant to water staining and scratches from everyday wear and tear. Unlike timber or aluminium alternatives, our doors should not warp, rot or corrode, providing a long-lasting, cost-effective solution.
uPVC doors require minimal maintenance to look good and last between 20 and 30 years with proper care. Unlike wooden doors, they won’t need sanding back and repairing, nor will they need varnishing or sealing. uPVC doors are a hassle-free option for busy family households.

Modern uPVC doors are designed with security in mind, typically with multi-point locking mechanisms and steel-reinforced frames, to keep your family safe. Plus, modern uPVC doors are engineered for thermal efficiency, to help maintain your indoor temperatures whilst also reducing your energy consumption.
Whether you have a period-style property, a modern townhouse or a newly built home, uPVC doors can offer a good match. With various colours and wood finishes available, you can customise your uPVC door to match the overall aesthetic and style of your Ilford home, whilst also matching your unique taste and style. You’ll even be able to customise the glass panel inside the door and the hardware. No matter the age or style of your home, our experts know the Ilford area well and can help you find the most suitable option to suit your aesthetic and budget.
French Doors, Patio and Bi-Fold Doors
Bi-fold, sliding patio and French doors are all distinct ways to connect indoor and outdoor spaces.
Bi-fold doors are made of multiple hinged panels, saving space by neatly folding away against each other when opened. This smooth operation will create a practical, stylish solution that improves the functionality and visual appeal of your living space. We offer Origin bi-fold doors, known to stand the test of time, thanks to their quality craftsmanship. These doors are made from the finest aluminium for excellent thermal comfort, security and weather protection. Aluminium bi-fold doors exceed PAS 24 security standards and are fitted with 8-point locking systems and heavy-duty zinc hinges to resist forced entry.

Patio doors are highly customisable in terms of the number of panes and whether the doors slide or swing out. This makes them the perfect choice for properties with limited space. Well-suited to both contemporary and period properties alike, patio doors are unobtrusive and come in a variety of designs, colours, and finishes so you can match your home’s overall style. With a slim uPVC profile, you’ll have a larger glazing area, so more sunshine can flood into your property, brightening it and creating the illusion of more space. Patio doors are also a great choice for those with pets or young children, allowing you to keep an eye on them from indoors.
Our French doors are sourced from market-leaders Deceuninck, which combine design and expert craftsmanship to create high-quality energy-efficient doors. Throughout the summer months, your uPVC French doors can be left open to welcome in the cool air, and in the winter months, the large glazed panels will let in the sunshine without losing thermal efficiency. Deceuninck’s products are available in a wide range of foils and colour-coated finishes to complement your home, all of which are incredibly durable, scratch-resistant and effective. The French doors we supply also have a multi-chambered uPVC profile to provide additional security, and multi-point locking gives further peace of mind that your home is secure.

Flexible Double Glazing Finance Options
We appreciate that funding a new double-glazing project for your Ilford home isn’t always the cheapest. That’s why we offer several finance options to our customers to help them achieve their double-glazing dreams.
Interest-Bearing & Balance-Reducing Loans
Our first option is an interest-bearing balance-reducing loan, letting you spread the cost of the double-glazing product over a period that suits you. Terms are available at 24, 48, 60 and 120 months.

How much money can I save with double glazing?
Will double-glazed windows add value to a property?
Can I get a government grant for double glazing?
How does double glazing improve energy efficiency?
How can I tell if my new windows are energy-efficient?
The key thing to look out for is the Window Energy Rating, which is typically visible in the form of a rainbow label. These labels usually show a rating from A+ to G, with A+ being the most efficient.
The U-value will also let you know how much heat your windows will transfer. The minimum U-value required for new windows is 1.8 W/m2k; however, the lower the U-value, the more efficient the windows are.
Can double glazing help reduce noise?
How secure are double-glazed windows?
Should double glazing get condensation?
Double glazing will significantly reduce the amount of condensation in your home. When condensation occurs on the outside pane of your window, this demonstrates how well the windows are working. The heat from your home is not escaping, so the outside pane is cooler than the inside pane.
When you find condensation on the inside pane of your windows, this is caused by moisture around your home, such as when showering or cooking. Improving ventilation will solve this problem.
The only time you need to worry about condensation is when it appears between the two panes of glass. This could mean that the seal has failed and needs to be replaced.
Do I Need Planning Permission For Double Glazing?
In most cases, planning permission isn’t needed for double glazing.
However, if you live in a listed building or a designated conservation area, you may find that you are under stricter rules. Heritage properties are required to maintain the original appearance of the windows, which can sometimes limit you to single glazing or a like-for-like replacement.
You’re best to check with your local planning authority before making any changes.

Should you wish to submit an application, you must do so through the Redbridge Council Planning Portal.
Are There Any Conservation Areas in Ilford?
Ilford has multiple conservation areas. This includes the Bungalow Estate (Formerly Mayfield) conservation area. Therefore, you need to be more cautious when making changes to your property if you live within one of these conservation areas. It’s always good to check with your local planning authority before starting any work.
