What installers quote for
What can you get quoted for in Surrey?
Surrey installers quote for replacement windows, acoustic glass, sealed units, repairs and secondary glazing, from a single bedroom near the airport to every window of a detached house.
- Replacement windows in uPVC, aluminium or timber, with casement, sash-style or tilt and turn openings.
- Acoustic glazing with laminated glass for rooms under a flight path or beside a main road.
- Sealed-unit replacement for misted panes in frames that still work.
- Repairs to hinges, handles, locks and seals.
- Secondary glazing for listed homes, where the original frames stay.
Window installers do not all fit doors, so ask whether a front, back or patio door can join the quote.

Local factors
What changes a Surrey double glazing quote
Five things change a Surrey quote: Gatwick aircraft noise, district planning rules, listed homes, detached houses and inter-war details. Name the ones that fit your home on the call, so each installer quotes the same specification.

Aircraft noise
Acoustic glazing quotes near Gatwick
Surrey homes inside Gatwick's noise contour can apply to the airport's Noise Insulation Scheme before paying for new windows. Gatwick says "Our Noise Insulation Scheme applies to eligible homes across Surrey, Sussex and Kent", and that "The core scheme boundary is based on a Civil Aviation Authority calculated 60dBA noise contour".
The scheme contributes towards double glazing for the windows and doors of eligible homes. Gatwick's interactive noise insulation scheme map shows whether a property falls inside the boundary, so check it before you book any survey.
- Check your address on the scheme map first, and ask the airport how a claim works with your installer.
- Outside the boundary, ask for laminated acoustic glass and the sound reduction (Rw) figure of each option.
- Ask the installer to price the rooms that face the flight path as a separate line.

Planning and consent
Do you need planning permission for new windows in Surrey?
A Surrey house usually needs no planning permission for replacement windows of similar appearance, and your district or borough council, not Surrey County Council, decides the exceptions. The Planning Portal lists them: an Article 4 direction can remove the right, listed buildings need consent, and leaseholders may need the landlord's permission.
Surrey County Council says "There are 200 conservation areas in Surrey." Each of the 11 districts keeps its own conservation area maps and any Article 4 directions, so check the district's planning pages for your street rather than the county's.
Surrey holds 6,619 listed building entries on the national list (12.6 per 1,000 homes). A listed house needs listed building consent before its windows change, so ask installers whether they prepare consent drawings and whether secondary glazing suits the frames.
Flats have no householder permitted development rights, because those rights cover houses (GPDO 2015, Schedule 2, Part 1). Our guide to replacing windows in a leasehold flat covers the freeholder's consent.

Whole-house window quotes for Surrey's detached and inter-war homes
Surrey quotes run to more windows than most, because 32.2% of Surrey households live in a detached house, against 22.9% across England (Census 2021, TS044). The share reaches 43.7% in Surrey Heath and 40.4% in Waverley, so a small gap per window becomes a large gap per house.
Inter-war houses are common too: 18.0% of Surrey homes were built from 1919 to 1939, against 14.8% across England, and in Epsom and Ewell the share is 40.0% (VOA, 31 March 2026). Houses of that age often have bays, and some keep leaded or stained glass, so check what yours has before the survey.
- Ask for a price for every window, not one total for the house.
- Ask for each bay to be priced as its own line, with how it will be supported.
- Ask whether leaded or decorative glass can be copied, and price it as a separate line.

Repair or replace
Is it worth replacing 20 year old double glazing in Surrey?
Replacing 20-year-old double glazing is worth it when the frames are failing; when only a pane has misted or a fitting has worn, a repair is the cheaper fix. A new sealed unit fits the existing frame, so one misted pane does not mean a new window.
- Repair a misted unit, a stiff hinge, a loose handle or a worn lock.
- Upgrade the glass to an acoustic unit in a sound frame near a flight path.
- Replace frames that are warped, draughty or no longer lock.
On a detached house, ask for repair and replacement prices window by window, so you replace only the windows that need it.

Before you choose
How to compare Surrey double glazing installers
Compare Surrey installers on registration, company record, guarantee and the detail of the quote before you compare totals. Our page on double glazing installers shows how to run each check.
- Find the firm on the FENSA or CERTASS register.
- Check its trading history on Companies House.
- Get the guarantee in writing, and ask whether it is insurance-backed.
- Check that the quote lists each window with its glass, Rw figure and energy rating.
Work through our contract checklist before you sign. If you sign at home, you usually have at least 14 days to cancel, but made-to-measure windows can be an exception, so check the contract before you sign. Our guide to the double glazing cooling off period explains the exceptions.

FAQ
Surrey double glazing questions
Who contacts me after I ask for Surrey quotes?
A short call confirms the job first. Installers who cover your postcode then get in touch to survey the windows and quote in writing.
Is there a grant for double glazing in Surrey?
All 11 Surrey districts are on the July 2026 Warm Homes: Local Grant list, run for householders by Surrey County Council, and glazing is an eligible measure for qualifying homes. Homes inside Gatwick's noise contour can also apply to the airport's insulation scheme.
Does this page cover Sutton, Kingston or Croydon?
No. Sutton, Kingston upon Thames and Croydon are London boroughs, so homes there are covered by our London page, even with a Surrey postal address.
Is it worth replacing 20 year old double glazing?
Twenty-year-old double glazing is worth replacing when the frames fail and worth repairing when only a sealed unit or fitting has, so ask for both prices window by window.
What are the disadvantages of double glazing?
The main drawbacks are the upfront outlay, sealed units that mist once their seal fails, and consent limits on listed homes and Article 4 streets.
How much should I expect to pay for double glazing?
The price depends on the number of windows, the frame material, the glass and any consent work, and our sister site shows what double glazing costs in each UK region.
