What you can expect in Northampton

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Northampton identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Northampton building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Fixed written quotes

After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Northampton budgets are not open-ended.

Before you order fire-rated glass floors: what matters

Load and fire together

A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.

Rooflights

Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.

Privacy

Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.

Northampton coverage and nearby towns

Our Northamptonshire coverage takes in Northampton (NN1, NN2, NN5, NN3, NN4) and the neighbouring towns of Wellingborough, Daventry, Rushden. Northampton is the largest town in our Northamptonshire coverage.
