Struggling With Draughty Windows in Guildford?

We Make Homes Warmer, Quieter & More Energy-Efficient

Hey Guildford homeowners! Whether you’re nestled in the historic streets of Shere or enjoying town life near the High Street, one thing we all share is the need for homes that handle Surrey’s unpredictable weather with ease. Let’s talk about how upgrading your windows and doors can transform your living space – without the jargon or sales pitches.

Why Double Glazing in Guildford Isn’t Just About Keeping Warm

We’ve all experienced that moment in February when the wind whips off the Hog’s Back straight through drafty windows. But modern double glazing in Guildford does more than fight chills – it’s your home’s multitasking superhero.

At Sheerwater Glass’s Guildford showroom (just off Slyfield Industrial Estate, near Screwfix!), we’ve helped over 50 years’ worth of locals discover that proper double glazing:

  • Slashes energy bills by up to £300/year through advanced insulation
  • Reduces traffic noise from the A3 or train station rumbles by 60-70%
  • Adds security with laminated glass options that withstand 5x more force than standard panes
  • Maintains character in period homes with slimline uPVC or woodgrain finishes

“After installing our new Chartwell Green conservatory with new double glazing, our 1930s semi in Shalford went from feeling like a draughty museum to a cozy modern home,” shares Mr & Mrs Charles, one of our 280 + 5-star Google reviewers.
