How we work in Bury
Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bury budgets are not open-ended.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Bury identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Bury building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Bury
The joint is part of the test
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
Protection on site
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
Deflection
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
