Secondary Glazing for Listed Buildings
Windows in older buildings can be draughty, letting heat in and out as joints weaken and gaps emerge. Secondary glazing for listed buildings improves their thermal performance while maintaining the property’s historic character and value. Arrange secondary glazing for listed buildings in the UK to improve energy efficiency and uphold its heritage value.
Double glazing for listed buildings
Installing double glazing for listed buildings in the UK is important to improve their sustainability. It helps future-proof such important properties, so they last for many more decades and centuries. Double glazing for Grade II listed buildings keeps them quieter, warmer, and more comfortable for occupants.
However, there are various challenges with double glazing for listed buildings. Over time the original window frame and joinery can deteriorate, which introduces gaps that let heat escape and moisture in, alongside other problems. Maintaining the architectural and historical integrity and character when adding a secondary glazing to windows in old properties is imperative.
At Validus Construction, we can assess, advise, and install double glazing for listed buildings professionally. This includes historical domestic properties, commercial buildings, churches, and restoration projects. All work is carried out in a way that preserves its architectural magnificence and complies with legal requirements, such as listed building consent where necessary.

Heritage double glazing and listed building window repairs
Installing heritage double glazing improves the thermal and acoustic performance of older buildings. It creates modern energy efficiency and living standards for historical properties where window replacements aren’t possible due to the protected heritage status of a property. Secondary glazing introduces sound and heating benefits similar to modern buildings.
Heritage double glazing is added in a way that matches the traditional aesthetics and surrounding framework. Designs are customised to the existing window and frame shape and size as every listed building is different. Expert joiners measure and assess the building to draw up designs that retain the architectural and historical elements.
Listed building window repairs are often made alongside adding secondary glazing, where required. This can address problems with old frames and joinery that may have deteriorated over time due to weather impacts. Listed building window repairs can extend their life with simple fixes and maintenance and no need for a complete replacement.
Secondary glazing is possible for many Grade I and II listed buildings alongside repairs and maintenance. It could be a one-off repair job or part of a larger restoration or renovation project for heritage homes, ecclesiastical buildings such as old churches, and commercial buildings.
