Key checks for Guildford projects
Discontinued products
When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.
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.
Interim arrangements
Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.
