Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
Most fire glass is etched or printed with its product name and classification. A photo of the mark speeds up quoting.
Repeated breakage can point to frame movement, door slamming or impact from trolleys. We look at the cause.
When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.

Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
