Broken Fire Glass Replacement: an overview for Gwynedd
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 Gwynedd projects
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.
Discontinued products
When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.

Which rules apply in Wales?
Wales Which rules apply?
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.
Questions from Gwynedd clients
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.
Is a cracked fire glass pane still safe?
It may not perform as tested. Treat it as a defect and arrange replacement promptly.
Can you replace just one pane?
Yes. Single panes can be replaced on their own, provided the replacement is compatible with the frame's evidence.
Can you survey anywhere in Gwynedd?
Yes. We can arrange surveys anywhere in Gwynedd, including Bangor and Caernarfon, Holyhead, Pwllheli, Llangefni.
