Ways we can help in Wallington
Replacement Glass in Wallington
Older sealed units often have plain float glass on both sides. A replacement unit can use a low-emissivity coated pane and a gas-filled cavity, which reduces heat loss through the glass without changing the frame. The coating faces into the cavity and is not noticeable in normal use.
Emergency Glazing in Wallington
Temporary glazing uses polycarbonate or a basic glass pane instead of a board, letting daylight in while permanent glass is made. It suits shopfronts that need to keep trading, living rooms and windows where boarding would leave a room in darkness for days.
Shopfront Glazing in Wallington
Under the Equality Act 2010 in England, Wales and Scotland, businesses serving the public must make reasonable adjustments, which can include physical changes such as a ramp where the only entrance is a step. Northern Ireland has its own disability discrimination law, so the duties there differ.

Glazing in Wallington: questions
What happens to the old glass?
We take away the old glass and packaging and dispose of it responsibly. If you would like anything kept, such as original leaded panels, tell us before the work starts.
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 I need building regulations approval?
Replacing just the glass in an existing frame is usually treated as a repair. Replacing whole windows or glazed external doors is building work, and the rules on notification differ between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Your quote explains what applies and how it will be handled.
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.
