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.
EI glass is laminated to size, so it can take longer to supply than integrity glass. We give you a realistic date.
When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.
