What our customers are saying

Ventrolla were able to beat all the other quotations that I received and answered queries quickly and informatively, making changes as required promptly and without fuss. I was kept informed throughout of lead times and manufacturing times. The real stars of the show were Rob and James who worked tirlessly and brilliantly as a team to repair sash boxes where required and install our new sashes. Thank you!

Stephen

Everybody I dealt with has been super friendly, informative, and helpful. I received emails with updates on what was happening, etc. It has been a great experience from start to finish.

Cai

I used Ventrolla to renovate my sash windows over to years ago. When two of them finally collapsed, including a bay window the size of three full sized Georgian windows they were my first contact. The office staff, surveyors and the three fitters that did an amazing job installing them in less than two days were all excellent. The quality of workmanship and the standard of installation were first class, and the new windows look amazing. I will definitely be using them again as more of my windows will need replacing over the next few years.

Alastair

This is the second property Ventrolla have restored my windows for me, and the this job was every bit as good as the first. 14 sash windows in a Grade II listed building installed/refurbed without a hitch in week. The team of 4 installers were lovely chaps, super efficient and tidy. All round another fabulous job done – thank you the Ventrolla Team

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Ventrolla Perimeter Sealing system (VPSS) improve comfort levels?

The main complaints we receive from customers tend to be about draughts, rattles, leaks, and heat loss from their windows. Our draught-proofing system closes the gap around the sashes, eliminating these issues whilst allowing the sashes to still travel smoothly past each other.

Do you offer an installation guarantee?

Yes, our work is guaranteed for 5 years.

How long will my window renovation take?

The time taken will vary depending on the result, e.g. your survey and the work we identify as needed. Typically, we work to a one-window-per-day time scale, although this can be adjusted, if necessary, to suit your requirements or our schedule.

Varying from installation to installation, our average timescale targets are

  • Enquiry to estimate: 5–10 days
  • Estimate to order: 30 days
  • Order to installation: 10–16 weeks

Can you fix window condensation?

The main way to combat condensation is to further ventilate your home (i.e. open your windows from time to time). The moisture in your home is caused by heating, bodies, etc. and it settles on the nearest cold surface, which is usually your windows. Double glazing units will be slightly less cold and therefore you may notice slightly less condensation, however, your home will also be better insulated, thus more moisture may be contained within your home.

What is the average cost of renovating a window?

It all depends how much work each window needs. For a more accurate estimate, please call us on 0800 0277 454 to arrange a free, no obligation survey.

How long does double glazing last in a house?

The lifespan of double glazing windows can vary depending on several factors, such as the quality of the materials used, the installation method, and the level of maintenance they receive. On average, double glazed windows can last between 10 to 20 years, although some high-quality units can last up to 35 years or more.

Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and lubricating the hardware, can help to extend the lifespan of your double glazed windows.

Are double glazed windows worth it?

Double glazed windows are definitely worth considering as they offer several benefits for homeowners. One of the main advantages of double glazing is that it can significantly improve the energy efficiency of your home. The two panes of glass create a layer of insulation that helps to keep warm air inside during the winter and outside during the summer, reducing heat loss and lowering energy bills.

In addition, double glazing can also help to reduce outside noise, making your home quieter and more comfortable. The insulating layer between the panes of glass helps to block out sound waves, which can be especially beneficial if you live in a busy or noisy area.
