EXCELLENT Based on 66 reviews Posted on Google Sharron SunTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our 4 bedroom house fully retrofitted with double-glazing a couple of months ago. We also wanted to swap out a set of windows for a sliding door, and Glasswise was able to accommodate (ie didn’t have to use another provider). Installation was over in two days, and we cannot fault the follow-up service. Jase was very helpful when we were getting quotes offering suggestions on the options. So pleased we went with Glasswise - good lines of communication, and kept to timeframes. Now we have double glazing, I wonder why we waited so long to do it! Thanks Paul MPosted on Google Rachel TuckerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently retrofitted our timber windows with double glazed aluminum inserts with Glasswise. I appreciated working with every one of the team. Jace is happy to go above and beyond in the early stages, explaining how it all works and making helpful suggestions. The installation team were jovial, honest and did a great job. Paul replaced some aluminum frames that were scratched during transit - it was such a great professional service. Highly recommend.Posted on Google Tiffany HodgsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service from start to finish. Free quote done. Paul was very responsive. Then after we decided to go ahead it was 2 months from first payment to installation. The guys did a great job and left everything tidy afterwards. I love the new windows! They look sharp even with our old frames and it feels warmer already. Have already recommended Glasswise to friends.Posted on Google Janet ElderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Glasswise were wonderful to deal with. Their quote was the best price we got and the job from start to finish was professional and finished to a high standard. We couldn't be happier with our retrofit double glazing.Posted on Google Jeremy DoneghueTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Glasswise were really good to work with and knowledgeable about the best solution for my home, which ended up costing less than what I originally thought was required. Installation of the retrofit glazing on the day was quick and professional, and they were responsive when it came to rectifying a minor issue after installation. The glass and new window seals and latches have made a huge difference to the noise levels in the house by a busy road, and are doing a good job managing solar heat gain in a N/E facing townhouse.Posted on Google John GranvilleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very happy with meeting with Paul. Very professional and explained in detail. The two guys who inserted the windows were excellent. Done in good time and vacuumed after. Look amazing and modern.Posted on Google Sherrin JefferiesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Glasswise provided a great service, we were well informed throughout the process and any questions we had were answered quickly. Installation was done within the day. We were really happy with the whole process and the result! Thanx Glasswise.Posted on Google Ben BrownlieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The Right Option for Every Home
Retrofit Double Glazing - Timber or Aluminium
Retrofit double glazing upgrades your existing window frames with new double-glazed glass units – a cost-effective way to improve insulation and comfort without replacing the entire window.
Perfect if:
- Your frames are still in good condition
- You want to keep your home’s original look
- You’re looking for a faster, less invasive installation
💡 Retrofit is ideal for most aluminium and timber homes built before double glazing became standard.

Inserts Or Full Replacement Windows & Doors
When your joinery needs more than new glass, our replacement and insert options are designed to modernise your space — without unnecessary rebuilds.
Inserts:
If your existing frames are still sound but you want brand-new sashes or opening panels, inserts are a great middle-ground. We remove the old window panels and install new, double-glazed inserts into your existing frame.
- Less disruption than full replacement
- Brand-new hardware and seals
- A fresh, modern look
- Improved insulation and performance
It’s the perfect option when you want the benefits of new joinery — without removing the existing frames or cladding.
Full Replacement Windows & Doors:
If your frames are damaged, outdated, or you’re ready for a new layout, full replacement gives you a completely fresh start. We remove your existing joinery and install brand-new aluminium windows or doors, complete with high-performance double glazing.
- Ideal for renovations or home upgrades
- Freedom to change window size or configuration
- Modern profiles, colours, and energy-efficient design
Whether it’s inserts, full replacements, or a mix of both, our team will assess your home and recommend the best solution for your comfort, budget, and long-term value.
