- Coast
- Richmond is well inland, around 47 km from the nearest coast, so salt exposure is not usually a factor.
- Daylight and sun
- In Richmond the midwinter sun reaches about 15° above the horizon at noon, with roughly 7.6 hours of daylight, rising to about 62° and 16.4 hours in midsummer.
- Building rules
- In England, replacing a whole window, roof window or glazed external door is building work. It has to be notified to building control, either by an installer registered with a competent person scheme such as FENSA or Certass, or through a building notice to the council. Replacing only the glass in an existing frame is a repair and is not notifiable.
Ways we can help in Richmond
Curtain Walling in Richmond
Building regulations require external walls to limit the spread of fire, so curtain walling design has to consider how its materials react to fire and how fire could pass between floors. The requirements depend on the building's height and use, and differ between the UK nations.
Glass Balustrades in Richmond
Under the guidance used in England, guarding is generally expected where there is a drop of more than 600mm in or around a dwelling, or more than 380mm in other buildings. Below those drops a glass screen is a design choice rather than a requirement, though the glass still has to suit its position.
Secondary Glazing in Richmond
A low-emissivity coating on the secondary glass reflects heat back into the room and improves the insulation of the combined window. It is a useful choice for single-glazed sash and casement windows where the originals must be kept for character or planning reasons.

Glazing in Richmond: questions
Is my information shared with anyone?
Your enquiry is used to arrange your survey and quote. It is handled by the S&K Group and the glazier assigned to your job, and is not sold to third parties. See the privacy policy for full details.
Do I need building regulations approval?
Replacing just the glass in an existing frame is usually treated as a repair. Replacing whole windows or glazed external doors is building work, and the rules on notification differ between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Your quote explains what applies and how it will be handled.
How is the price worked out?
Price depends mainly on size, glass type (standard, toughened, laminated, acoustic or triple), access, and any extras such as obscure patterns or Georgian bars. The guide prices on this site show typical ranges. A glazier measures before anything is ordered, and your written quote fixes the price for the specification shown.
Can you match my existing glass?
In most cases, yes. We can match common obscure patterns, Georgian bars, leaded designs and tints, and we will tell you on the survey if an exact match is not available and what the closest option is.
Do you cover Richmond?
Yes. We cover Richmond and the surrounding Greater London area, including postcode districts SW13, SW14, TW1, TW2, TW9 and TW10. Start with your postcode on the quote form and we will arrange a free survey and a written quote.
