What to check before ordering in Cornwall
Interim arrangements
Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.
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.
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.

FAQs for Cornwall
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.
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.

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