Broken Fire Glass Replacement

Broken fire glass replacement is the repair of cracked, shattered or damaged fire-resistant panes with glass of a type the frame's evidence allows, refitted with the correct beads and seals. A cracked fire pane may not perform as tested, so it should be made safe and replaced promptly.

What does our fire glass replacement service include?

We identify the existing glass from its marks, measure the opening, make the area safe and fit the correct replacement. If the original product is no longer made, we source an alternative covered by the frame's evidence or advise on the right next step.

  • Identification of existing fire glass from marks
  • Making-safe of broken panes
  • Like-for-like or evidence-covered replacement glass
  • New seals and beads where needed
  • Disposal of broken glass
  • Records for your fire safety file

What should you check before ordering?

Make it safe first

A broken pane can be a cut hazard and a gap in compartmentation. We can make it safe on the first visit while the replacement is cut.

Read the marks

Most fire glass is etched or printed with its product name and classification. A photo of the mark speeds up quoting.

Insulating glass lead times

EI glass is laminated to size, so it can take longer to supply than integrity glass. We give you a realistic date.

Why it broke

Repeated breakage can point to frame movement, door slamming or impact from trolleys. We look at the cause.

Discontinued products

When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.

Interim arrangements

Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.

What evidence do you get?

  • Replacement glass classification
  • Seal and bead specification
  • Before and after photographs
  • Completion note for the fire safety file

Guide prices for fire glass replacement

Single fire glass panes replaced from £195 per visit plus glass, excluding VAT. Prices depend on the rating, pane sizes, frame system, access and programme. Use the guide price tool for a range, or see all guide prices.

Frequently asked questions

Is a cracked fire glass pane still safe?

It may not perform as tested. Treat it as a defect and arrange replacement promptly.

How do I know what fire glass I have?

Look for an etched or printed mark in a corner of the pane. Send us a photo with the approximate size.

Can you replace just one pane?

Yes. Single panes can be replaced on their own, provided the replacement is compatible with the frame's evidence.

How quickly can you come out?

Lead times depend on the glass. Integrity glass is often quick to supply; insulating glass is made to size.
