We are BGO Construction, a family-run window company. We provide all our customers with a friendly and reliable approach to customer service, helping you find the perfect windows for your home.
Types of Glass We Offer
BGO Construction,s windows and doors can be supplied with a variety of glazing options to suit individual project specifications. We offer double and triple glazing, 4mm single & 14mm slimline double glazing with a vast range of textured glazing patterns with varying privacy levels, including stippolyte glass. In addition to this leaded designs and specialist glazing such as annealed, painted, bevelled, anti-sun and self-cleaning are also available.
Single & Slimline Double Glazing
Single glazing or slimline double glazing options are available on all timber windows and doors from the Heritage Range. These products are ideal for projects where standard double glazing options are not deemed suitable for either architectural, planning or conservation reasons.
We recognise the importance of achieving a balance between architectural sensitivity and window performance. Our product ranges have been specifically designed to incorporate energy saving properties. Our 14mm slimline double glazing has been designed to look identical to single glazing whilst saving energy at the same time.
Triple Glazing
Our triple glazed products offer excellent U-Values with softcoat low ‘e’ argon filled units with a centre pane U Value of 0.7w/m2k.
Triple glazing options are available on all PVCU designs and also our wooden windows and door designs across the Contemporary Range. Products include; Casement and Sliding bgo construction windows, French, Patio and Folding sliding doors.
Triple glazing is the ideal choice for larger glazing areas as it is allows maximum glazing sizes with minimum heat loss. Choosing triple glazed units can also increase the acoustic performance of a window through improving sound insulation in the home.

Secondary Glazing
The bespoke secondary double glazing system is designed specifically to sit inside your current windows without affecting them or the look of your property. It insulates you against heat loss and excessive noise, improves security and reduces your energy bills, all for less cost and hassling than installing new windows.
Noise Insulation
Secondary double glazing is an excellent way of reducing noise and sound pollution. Standard secondary glazing fitted over an existing single glazed window could reduce noise by up to 70%. Using laminated or acoustic glass instead of 4mm float glass increases the sound insulation even more

Windows are a key area for heat loss in any building, and single glazed windows are particularly poor at preventing heat loss.
Installing secondary glazing can dramatically improve the thermal efficiency of your windows. Even with standard 4mm glass it can halve the amount of heat lost through your windows by improving the U-value from around 4 W/m2K to 2 W/m2K or better.
Adding thermally efficient low-e glass (such as Pilkington K) improves things even more, bringing the U-value down to around 1.5.
