Many of New Zealand’s older character homes have interesting and unique windows. Most are single-glazed and lose significant heat, making it expensive to retain warmth in rooms during winter.
Owners of older, character homes may fear losing their attractive windows if they have them double-glazed.
Class with glass
But Absolute Glass can double glaze theses character windows and keep them looking as they were intended, for the house and era.
We have extensive experience in retrofitting double-hung sash windows, lead lights, and stained or coloured glass within double-glazed units.
