What's involved with fire glass replacement in Eastbourne
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.
- New seals and beads where needed
- Making-safe of broken panes
- Disposal of broken glass
- Records for your fire safety file
Before you order fire glass replacement: what matters
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.
