Architectural & Structural Glazing in Cheshire

Specialist Glazing Services in Cheshire

At IQ Glass, we provide bespoke architectural glazing solutions. Our Cheshire team combines technical expertise with innovative glazing designs to maximise natural light and create seamless connections between indoor and outdoor spaces. Our high-performance glass glazing systems deliver exceptional aesthetics and thermal performance, enhancing the finish of your architectural project.

We have extensive experience throughout Cheshire, particularly within the prestigious “Golden Triangle” comprising Alderley Edge, Prestbury, and Wilmslow. This affluent area, famous for attracting Premier League footballers and other high-profile residents, features many large bespoke residences, including newly built and extensively remodelled luxury homes. Properties commonly present a traditional appearance at the front, aligning with local architectural character, while incorporating contemporary glazing elements to the rear to optimise views, natural light, and privacy without disrupting the visual harmony of the surrounding neighbourhood.

A significant portion of rural Cheshire, particularly south of Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, and Prestbury, sits within the North-West Green Belt. Securing planning approval in these sensitive areas often involves demonstrating compliance with NPPF §80 “exceptional design” criteria, also known as the Country House Clause. IQ Glass brings deep expertise to navigating these stringent planning requirements, aligning glazing solutions carefully with Cheshire East’s core design policies (SE 1, GEN 1, HOU 13), which require that new architectural elements “respond positively” to local character. In practical terms, this means our glazing designs harmonise effectively with existing local aesthetics, integrating contemporary glazing thoughtfully within traditional Cheshire features such as red Ruabon brickwork, Kerridge stone-slate roofing, and iconic black-and-white timber framing, ensuring visual coherence and compatibility with neighbouring properties.
