Ways we can help in Gillingham
Bifold Doors in Gillingham
Security on bifold doors comes from multi-point locks on the traffic door, shoot bolts top and bottom on the folding panels, internally glazed beads, anti-lift track design and hinges that cannot be removed from outside. Ask whether the system has been tested to PAS 24 and fit an anti-snap cylinder.
Glass Roofs in Gillingham
Walk-on glass panels are laminated from several layers of toughened or heat-strengthened glass so the panel stays in place even if one layer breaks. The top layer usually carries an anti-slip finish, such as a fritted or etched pattern, and the panel thickness is calculated for the expected loads.
Glass Splashbacks in Gillingham
The price depends on the total glass area, the number of panels and joints, the number of cut-outs, the colour and glass type, and access to the wall. Low-iron glass, metallic or printed finishes and complex shapes add cost. See the guide prices for typical ranges.

Glazing in Gillingham: 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 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.
Is the survey really free?
Yes, for new glazing and glass replacement. Measuring and quoting costs you nothing and there is no obligation to go ahead. If a visit is only to diagnose or repair a fault, or to board up a broken window, we tell you before booking whether a charge applies. Once you accept a quote, the price on it is the price for that specification, and any extra work is agreed with you in writing first.
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.
Do you cover Gillingham?
Yes. We cover Gillingham and the surrounding Kent area, including postcode districts ME7 and ME8. Start with your postcode on the quote form and we will arrange a free survey and a written quote.
