Top Rated Windows and Doors in Malahide

Window replacement costs in Malahide typically range from €600–€1,200 per window, depending on size, material, and energy rating. For a standard 3-bedroom semi-detached home in Malahide, expect to pay €12,000–€18,000 for a full-home replacement with energy-efficient A-rated uPVC windows. At Airtight Window Systems, we provide free in-home consultations and detailed quotes within 24 hours, so you know exactly what your project will cost before committing.

Yes — triple glazed windows are particularly worthwhile for Malahide homes. Sitting right on the north Dublin coastline, properties here are exposed to higher wind, damp, and salt air than most inland areas, and the added performance of triple glazing makes a noticeable difference. Five years ago, 90% of windows installed by Airtight were double glazed versus 10% triple glazed. Today it’s a 50/50 split, and we expect triple glazing to overtake double glazing very soon.

Benefits for Malahide households:

• Better heat retention during Ireland’s cold, damp coastal winters
• Reduced condensation — particularly common in homes close to the estuary and marina
• Superior noise reduction, useful for properties near the DART line, the village centre, or main roads
• Higher home resale value as buyers increasingly expect A-rated windows
• Lower carbon footprint and improved BER ratings

Window and door installation in a 3-bed semi with 8–10 windows and two doors takes 3 days to complete. This includes all associated plasterwork, perimeter sealing, and removal of waste as standard.

Generally, no planning permission is required to replace windows in Malahide if you’re replacing like-for-like (same size, style, and position). That said, Malahide has some protected structures and conservation-sensitive areas — particularly around the village core and older residential streets near Malahide Castle. If your property falls into one of these categories, or if you’re significantly changing window size or style, planning permission may be required. We’ll advise you on this during your free consultation.

Our window replacement process is designed for minimal disruption and maximum transparency:

Step 1: Free In-Home Consultation (30–60 minutes) — A member of our sales team visits your Malahide home to take measurements, discuss your preferences (style, colour, functionality), and answer any questions. No pressure, no obligation.

Step 2: Detailed Quote — You receive a comprehensive quote including window specifications, installation timeline, total cost breakdown, and warranty details. We also provide a free energy audit showing projected heating bill savings.

Step 3: Order & Manufacturing (3–4 weeks to 6–8 weeks) — Once you approve the quote, windows are custom-manufactured to your exact measurements using premium uPVC, composite, or aluminium materials with A-rated energy efficiency.

Step 4: Professional Installation (1–3 days) — Our experienced installers arrive on schedule and agree a fitting plan to minimise disruption — increasingly important as more Malahide households work from home. Installation includes removal and safe disposal of old windows/doors, frame preparation, precise fitting, all associated plasterwork, and perimeter sealing.

Step 5: Final Inspection — We conduct a thorough inspection with you, demonstrate how to operate the new windows and doors, and hand over spare keys. Care for the home we’re working in is paramount — our fitters are regularly complimented for leaving properties spotless.

Yes, we’ve been fitting A-rated windows for the past 10–15 years, and they are now a standard part of our offering. Even a double glazed A-rated window can reduce heat loss by 40% compared to older single glazing, with further improvements available through triple glazing. This translates to lower energy bills and a noticeably warmer, more comfortable home for Malahide families throughout the year.

uPVC windows last 20–35 years in Ireland with minimal maintenance, making them excellent long-term value for Malahide homeowners. Lifespan depends on quality, installation, weather exposure, and basic upkeep. In a coastal area like Malahide, choosing a quality product from a certified installer makes more of a difference than in sheltered inland locations. uPVC can also be recycled at the end of its lifespan to maximise sustainability.
