Phasing
We can replace wired glass over holidays, weekends or zone by zone to keep the building running.

Questions about wired glass replacement in Cheltenham
What replaces wired glass?
Clear modern integrity or insulating fire glass with an impact classification, compatible with the frame.
Is Georgian wired glass fire-rated?
It can provide integrity in the right frame, typically for 30 minutes and sometimes longer in tested systems, but it does not insulate, and plain wired glass usually lacks an impact safety classification.
Can you price wired glass replacement in Cheltenham from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Cheltenham?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
