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.
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.

FAQs for Didcot
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.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Didcot?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Can you price fire glass replacement in Didcot from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
