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.
Our Gwent coverage takes in Newport (Gwent) (NP10, NP20, NP19, NP18) and the neighbouring towns of Risca, Cwmbran, Pontypool. Newport (Gwent) is the main town we cover in Gwent.
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.
EI glass is laminated to size, so it can take longer to supply than integrity glass. We give you a realistic date.
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Newport budgets are not open-ended.
