Double glazing a technique where a window has two glass panes with a pocket of air in between. Newer homes use double glazing, not just because of its many benefits, but also because it is a law requirement. Older homes can also benefit from double glazing.

Maybe you have noticed that your decades-old villa or bungalow has started letting in more cold or too much heat especially as it ages. Retro-fit double glazing can help to retain heat or cold within your house, reduce the amount of UV coming in and reduce the amount of noise getting in.

Our company, Thermawood Wairarapa, specializes in retrofitting older character homes with a special type of double glazing. We use a patented double glazing system that retains the character of your home while also giving you the benefits of technology.

Our Services

We offer a patented system of double glazing to double glaze older homes. This system, referred to as Thermawood Retro-fit, is line none other in New Zealand. Scores of customers from Wellington to Palmerston North have only good things to say about Thermawood.

The double glazing system is designed for use on timber windows and doors. Our main aim is to ensure that homeowners can still retain the character of their beautiful homes while still enjoying the benefits of double glazing. Our system works perfectly with existing timber joinery to create effective, energy-saving and long-lasting double glazing.

Thermawood goes further to solve some common problems faced by standard double glazing systems such as poor drainage. Water can cause rotting of the window frames and damage the double glazing on a window, rendering it useless. Our system includes a drainage mechanism that keeps the double glazing water-free. It also ensures free air circulation, thus eliminating misting and condensation.

We have also designed a special grand adapter that enables Thermawood retrofit double glazing to be used on almost any type of wooden joinery. Today, our double glazing system can be used on 99 percent of homes. Whatever type of timber joinery you have, do not hesitate to call us.

We have an experienced team of experts led by Kevin Lund, a master builder for more than two decades and Jim Upward, a former owner of a glass coating company in Upper Hutt. This ensures that our services are nothing short of the best.
