Ways we can help in Becontree
Glass Splashbacks in Becontree
After templating, made-to-measure splashbacks are usually ready within a few weeks, depending on colour and finish. Fitting a typical kitchen takes part of a day, and the kitchen can normally be used again straight afterwards, though the silicone needs time to cure fully.
Misted Glass Repair in Becontree
Common causes of seal failure include water sitting in the frame rebate because drainage holes are blocked, units fitted without correct packers, strong sun on dark frames, and age. Clearing the drainage slots in the frame helps protect the new unit from the same problem.
Shopfront Glazing in Becontree
In England, large areas of clear glass in shopfronts and entrance screens that people could walk into need manifestation at two levels, 850–1000mm and 1400–1600mm above the floor. Logos, frosted bands or patterns can do the job if they contrast clearly with what is seen through the glass.

Glazing in Becontree: 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.
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.
What should I do if a window has just broken?
Keep people and pets away from the glass, wear thick gloves if you need to move anything, and call us. We can arrange boarding or temporary glazing to make the opening safe, then measure for permanent glass. If there has been a break-in, report it to the police and note the reference for your insurer.
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.
