Double-glazed windows were invented in the 1930s, but only became standard in the UK in the 1980s when we all began to benefit from the improved thermal efficiency of these sealed, airtight windows.
Double glazing is one of those great modern conveniences which we’ve come to take for granted, but they don’t last forever. Their anticipated lifespan is up to 35 years, but they can fail earlier for a few reasons:
If one or more of your double-glazed units have failed or “blown” (when moisture has seeped in between the two panes of glass) we can effectively rectify the problem by replacing the defective double-glazed unit rather than you having to go to the expense and trouble of having new windows installed.
The House Doctors have been working in the double-glazing industry since 1979, so there’s not much we don’t know about the window technology that keeps our homes warm and soundproof.
You’ll know when your double glazing needs replacing because you’ll notice:
We supply and expertly fit only the best quality airtight, high performance double glazing units. With a number of options for A++ energy ratings and best U Value, guaranteed for 10 years. We can install replacement units for any type, size or shape of double-glazed window or door.
We are a registered “Which? Trusted trader” that has earned a reputation for excellence in and around the city of Bristol – and in places like Weston-super-Mare, Clevedon, Nailsea, Portishead and Yatton – for finding the most cost-effective solutions for your property maintenance issues.
We’ll never try to persuade you to replace the whole window when an effective and long-lasting repair is possible. For instance, we might be able to replace blown glass units, reseal the frames to the building and replace the weather seals and hardware, effectively rebuilding the window.
You can trust us to give you an honest and true assessment of the state of your double-glazed windows and doors, along with sound, professional advice about how to keep them well maintained, to extend their lifespan as long as possible.
I have had locks replaced at home with much better quality ones and a replacement glass unit, all done on one day very shortly after agreeing the work. I am very happy with the service offered and would thoroughly recommend Dave at House Doctors.
Chris Jones
Excellent service from David and their team replacing failed double glazing panes. Sensible price, great service.
Matt Bell
David replaced 5 panes of glass in a large UPVC window efficiently and tidily. He was a pleasure to deal with and we are delighted with the result. I would certainly recommend him.
Lizzy Budden
David and his team replaced a large number of double glazed window panels and some hinges and locks all in one day. Professional service – I would definitely recommend.
Chris Mallett
David replaced double glazing panels due to condensation build up, replaced hinges and rubbers in two windows to eliminate draught. He was fully contactable, the quote and work was completed as agreed and was in budget. Friendly, professional and good value, I would highly recommend.
Nic Adams
David carried out work on several of my windows including repairs to the frames and replacing double glazing. He was hard working, competent and very knowledgeable, taking pains to explain everything to me. Price was very reasonable and I shall certainly use him again and recommend him to friends.
Ann French
David replaced some windows and replaced patio window glass on our house recently and we were very pleased with the results. He is very conscientious and honest and will give you a fair estimate of the work to be done. We highly recommend him.

I had to organise replacements for three 30-year-old sliding-door locks at a property in Bristol – but I live 350 miles away. I was very lucky to find David to sort this out for me. He responded promptly to my email, reassured me that he could do the work, tracked down suitable replacements and fitted them very quickly. This was a fairly urgent matter and could have been very difficult to deal with from so far away. It was so reassuring to realise I had found someone who knew what they were doing, and who kept me informed about what was going on. I’m very happy to recommend David’s work wholeheartedly and if I lived in Bristol I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.
Customer in Edinburgh
David and his team did a great job replacing 30 window units which had become terribly fogged over the years. David visited before hand to check the job, arrived as arranged and had the whole thing completed in one day – including replacement of some of the hinges and locks. I would recommend David who did a tidy and professional job for us.

I have used House Doctors before, so when I discovered I had a blown window cell I had no hesitation in getting them in to fix. The job was done on budget, David is very easy to deal with and talks you though any complexities.
Customer in North Somerset
First class service. David replaced several double glazing units, two of which were large picture windows. The work was carried out very professionally. David and Adam were most friendly and I would not hesitate in using them again or in recommending their services. The price was reasonable and clearly explained before the work was carried out.
Customer in North Somerset
The time between our order and installation was remarkably short. The removal of the old panel and the installation of the new panel was carried out satisfactorily. The access was tricky but the three men manouevred the heavy panel very carefully. We are happy to have the window reinstated. We learned of House Doctors from the Which Trusted Traders list which has served us well before.
