What's involved with fire glass replacement in Newry
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.

Key checks for Newry projects
Read the marks
Most fire glass is etched or printed with its product name and classification. A photo of the mark speeds up quoting.
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.
