Rules and planning in Gloucestershire

Approved Document K requires safety glass in critical locations in England: glazing in doors and in side panels within 300 mm of a door, up to 1500 mm above floor level, and any glazing in walls or partitions up to 800 mm above floor level.

Listed buildings in England need listed building consent for most changes to historic windows or glass, and conservation areas can restrict changes visible from the street. Speak to the council's conservation officer before ordering.

Approved Document L sets the minimum energy performance for replacement windows and doors in existing homes in England: a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K, or Window Energy Rating band B for windows; doors can instead meet a Door Set Energy Rating (band B, or band C for doors more than 60% glazed); rooflights need 2.2 W/m²K.

Parts of Gloucestershire are within about 14 km of the coast, where exposure to wind and salt air is worth planning for.

Ways we can help in Gloucestershire

Glass Roofs in Gloucestershire

In England, Approved Document L limits how much of an extension can be glazed when the simple standard route is used. Large glass roofs often go beyond that limit, so energy calculations are usually needed to show the extension still complies, and building control checks them.

Sliding Doors in Gloucestershire

Older patio doors with worn rollers often feel heavy and grind along the track. Modern sliding doors use adjustable stainless or sealed bearing rollers designed for heavy glass, but they still need a clean, level track. Grit in the bottom track is the main reason a sliding door becomes stiff.

Replacement Glass in Gloucestershire

In England, Approved Document K treats glass in a door or within 300mm of a door edge, up to 1500mm above the floor, and any other glass within 800mm of the floor as critical locations. Replacement glass in these areas should be safety glass, even where the old pane was not.

Window Repairs in Gloucestershire

A door that drags on the threshold, catches the frame or needs lifting to lock has usually dropped. Doors can often be adjusted using the hinges and by repacking the glass or panel so the door sits square again. Adjustment is usually tried before replacing parts.

Glazing in Gloucestershire: questions

What is safety glass and where is it needed?

Safety glass is toughened or laminated glass that breaks in a safer way than ordinary float glass. Building regulations require it in critical locations, such as glass in and beside doors and low-level glazing, and we specify it wherever it is required.

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.

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 handle commercial and shopfront work?

Yes. We quote for shopfront glass, security laminated glazing, office partitions, glazed screens and curtain walling, as well as reactive glass replacement for commercial premises.

Which towns in Gloucestershire do you cover?

We cover the whole of Gloucestershire, including Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud, Kingswood, Mangotsfield and Yate, across postcode areas BS, GL. Enter your postcode on the quote form and we will confirm cover and arrange a free survey.
