Ways we can help in Chester-le-Street
Shower Screens in Chester-le-Street
An easy-clean coating is a water-repellent layer bonded to the glass that helps water run off and reduces limescale and soap marks. It does not stop cleaning altogether, and how long it lasts depends on following the care instructions and avoiding abrasive products.
Glass Balustrades in Chester-le-Street
Toughened glass cannot be cut, drilled or shaped once it has been toughened, so every hole, notch and corner is made before processing. That is why we template on site and order each panel to exact sizes. A panel made to the wrong measurement has to be remade, not trimmed.
Secondary Glazing in Chester-le-Street
Secondary glazing leaves the original window untouched and fits a second, independent window inside it. The air gap between the two works with the glass to reduce noise and heat loss. In most cases the installation can be taken out later without damaging the historic window or reveal.

Glazing in Chester-le-Street: questions
How long does a job take?
Glass is made to measure, so there is usually a lead time between survey and fitting. Fitting a sealed unit is normally quick; new windows, doors and architectural glass take longer. Your quote gives the expected lead time and how long the fitting will take on site.
Can I cancel after accepting a quote?
If you contract at home or remotely, you normally have 14 days to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Made-to-measure goods that have been made to your specification may not be cancellable once production starts; your quote and terms explain this clearly.
Who will actually do the work?
Work is carried out by glaziers working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with. Your quote names the company, the specification and the guarantee terms.
Can you match my existing glass?
In most cases, yes. We can match common obscure patterns, Georgian bars, leaded designs and tints, and we will tell you on the survey if an exact match is not available and what the closest option is.
Do you cover Chester-le-Street?
