Jeremy’s story will be of interest if you’re wondering how to stop noise pollution in a city centre home. He decided to invest in our soundproof windows having moved into a new property in West London and under-estimated the amount of noise in his area.
Having discounted secondary glazing as ugly and fiddly, he asked us to design and install bespoke noise-reducing windows in keeping with his home’s style. Is he happy with the result? The good news is you don’t need to take our word for it as he agreed to be interviewed.
About Jeremy’s Home
Jeremy is rightly proud of his period Kentish Town property. Kentish Town, however, is a lively part of North West London famed for its culture from galleries and music venues to pubs, bars and clubs. The downside? On moving in, Jeremy realised it was noisier than Jeremy expected. You will see in the video nearby construction work didn’t help either. Something had to be done.
He says “When we moved in, we hadn’t really quite noticed how much noise there was around. So, pretty quickly we wanted to make changes and noise reduction windows really seem like the right way to go.”

The Problem: City Noise Pollution
With city noise pollution from cars and busy streets threatening to spoil time in his new home, Jeremy researched options and quickly found Hugo Carter online. He was impressed by our understanding of the effects of noise pollution and our scientific approach to noise reduction, but also by the fact our windows would not be ugly additions to his home.
“Hugo Carter popped up pretty much the standalone. There wasn’t really anyone else to compare to that.”
It is bad enough noise pollution causes interruptions to your peace and quiet, without having to live with new windows that don’t fit in with the plans you have for your home
The Solution: Soundproof Windows
Jeremy quickly realised our soundproof windows were the best noise pollution prevention solution available. Getting a soundproof window installation proved straightforward.
Jeremy comments
“The installation was pretty smooth and pretty efficient, actually. I was really impressed. The guys came to do a site survey, they took pictures, took measurements, figured out how they’re going to do it. And then we had two lots of windows done and the whole thing was done in two days.”
Our craftsmen are incredibly skilled at fitting our bespoke timber-framed windows meaning, like Jeremy, you can enjoy a speedy, easy and fuss-free installation experience.


The Result: A Better Nights Sleep
Jeremy has been impressed with the results. He explains that installing Silent Windows from Hugo Carter has ended nights of city noise sleep disruption.
He explains “Once the product was actually completed and finished, I was really amazed actually. I didn’t honestly didn’t think that it was going to make as much difference as it did… I’ve had a great night’s sleep ever since and before that, it was really disrupted so it made a big difference.”
Noise pollution shouldn’t be allowed to interrupt your home and family life. Jeremy realised Silent Windows from Hugo Carter could provide a solution that also fitted aesthetically with his period property.
He was so impressed he agreed to go on camera to talk about his experiences.
