Take steps to protect cheap double glazing during family football games

Cheap double glazing could be at risk from stray footballs this summerThe World Cup season could see a rise in the number of cheap double glazing breakages caused by stray balls.Those who have recently installed cheap double glazing should take steps to minimise the risk that a stray ball will break them this World Cup season.

Rob Townend, director of property claims at Aviva, has highlighted the fact that taking just a few precautions can minimise the risk of damage occurring.

Key steps he advises include substituting a football for one made of a softer material such as rubber, as this will reduce the amount of force created by a collision of this type.

Getting more people involved could also cut the risk of an accident taking place, as with more hands the risk of the ball being missed by another player also falls, he suggested.

Mr Townend added: "It might be as well to direct those games of footie, tennis or cricket away from your home and towards the end of the garden or perhaps a local park."

The importance of installing cheap double glazing was recently highlighted by the Waltham Forest Guardian, which claimed that local authority the Epping Forest District Council is installing double-glazing into its buildings to cut energy consumption.
