Very impressed with Glasswise! Paul and team have done a great job explaining the various double glazing options and installing an excellent product. Glasswise communicated well, and provided genuine quality and professionalism. Highly recommended. Thank youPosted on Kim StrettonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The double glazing has made such a difference to our home! Much warmer and no condensation on the double glazed windows! We also love the look of them. A big thanks to your team, they were so easy to have around and did such a tidy job. We thought retrofitted glass would mean the window frames would need a full make-over after the double glazing, but you can’t even tell work was done. The windows all open and close much better now too. Really impressed. Thank you!Posted on Caitlin HaywardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had our windows fully replaced by the team at Glasswise and I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences I have ever had with a business. Aproximately 4 years ago, we initally reached out to Glasswise for some french doors to be replaced, but we ultimately went with another company, which left us out of pocket of thousands of dollars and terrible quality doors. Long story short we came back to Glasswise and not once were we made to feel like we had mucked them around. Paul was so welcoming of us and made sure we felt comfortable through the process. What stood out the most was the care that was taken on the job by the installers but also the project management on Paul's end. Paul followed up with us multiple occasions when we had hestitations given our last experience with the previous company. Even Maggie dropping off a little thank you gift at the end of the project when we were the ones to be thanking them! The Glasswise team exceeded all expectations and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. If you are after quality workmanship, great communication and a company that takes pride in their service then look no further. The grass is not greener elsewhere - trust me!Posted on Nicholas KuanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul and his team did a fantastic job. Throughout the process I found them knowledgable and very open to communication. Would definitely consider them for any future jobs.Posted on Mireille Brinkhuis-SwintTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul and his crew replaced all our single glazing with double glazing in the existing frames. They did a great job and we noticed a difference from day 1, no more crying windows and the house feels a lot more comfortable with these cold temperatures. We can highly recommend Glasswise, honest advice, clear communication, efficient, eye for detail and they left no mess! Thanks again Paul and your crew! -Martijn & Mireille -Posted on Sorayah ZimmermannTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really happy with the service from Glasswise.

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.
