What every Bedford quote includes
Work around occupied buildings
We can phase work in Bedford around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Bedford building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Bedford identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Key checks for Bedford projects
Painted seals
Intumescent strips painted over during redecoration can be replaced without changing the glass.
Evidence first
Remedial glass and seals must suit the existing frame's evidence. Where that evidence is missing, we raise it before work starts.
Service penetrations
Cables and pipes through glazed screens and their surrounds must be fire-stopped with products tested for that application.
