What to check before ordering fire glass replacement in Sunderland
Read the marks
Most fire glass is etched or printed with its product name and classification. A photo of the mark speeds up quoting.
Why it broke
Repeated breakage can point to frame movement, door slamming or impact from trolleys. We look at the cause.
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.
