Ways we can help in Winchester
Glass Balustrades in Winchester
A frameless channel only performs as well as the structure it is bolted into. Channels need a solid base such as concrete or steel, and timber decks or floor joists often need extra steelwork or blocking. Checking the substrate at survey stage avoids panels that flex or loosen under load.
Sliding Doors in Winchester
Replacing patio doors in the same opening usually takes about a day on site, longer for wide multi-panel systems or where heavy glass needs extra hands or lifting gear. The doors are made to the survey sizes first, and the lead time is confirmed in writing with the quote.
Emergency Glazing in Winchester
Boarding is usually exterior-grade plywood or OSB cut to fit the opening and screwed into the frame or surrounding structure. For a secure fix, the board is fixed so it cannot simply be levered off from outside, and edges are kept tight to limit weather getting in.

Glazing in Winchester: questions
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.
How do payment and deposits work?
Payment terms are set out on your written quote. For made-to-measure items a deposit may be requested before ordering, and the quote explains when the balance is due.
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.
