- Building rules
- Approved Document L sets the minimum energy performance for replacement windows and doors in existing homes in England: a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K, or Window Energy Rating band B for windows; doors can instead meet a Door Set Energy Rating (band B, or band C for doors more than 60% glazed); rooflights need 2.2 W/m²K.
Ways we can help in Corby
Composite Doors in Corby
For easily accessible doors in new homes in England, Approved Document Q expects doorsets that resist forced entry, commonly shown by testing to PAS 24. Asking for a PAS 24 tested composite door is a practical benchmark when replacing a front or back door, even though the rule targets new dwellings.
uPVC Windows in Corby
When windows are replaced in England, Approved Document F expects the room's ventilation to be no worse than before. That usually means trickle vents in the head of the new frames, sized to the room, so the glazier records whether the old windows had vents and specifies the new ones to suit.
Property Glazing in Corby
For workplaces, communal areas and offices, the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations require windows, glazed doors and transparent partitions to be of safety material or protected against breakage where needed for health or safety, and to be marked so they are apparent.

Glazing in Corby: questions
Who will actually do the work?
Work is carried out by glaziers working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with. Your quote names the company, the specification and the guarantee terms.
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.
Can I cancel after accepting a quote?
If you contract at home or remotely, you normally have 14 days to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Made-to-measure goods that have been made to your specification may not be cancellable once production starts; your quote and terms explain this clearly.
Can landlords and managing agents open an account?
Yes. We can work with landlords, letting agents, housing providers and facilities teams on reactive glass replacement and planned glazing work, with a written quote per job and photos of the finished work on request.
Do you cover Corby?
Yes. We cover Corby and the surrounding Northamptonshire area, including postcode districts NN17 and NN18. Start with your postcode on the quote form and we will arrange a free survey and a written quote.
