Ways we can help in Blantyre
Frameless Glass in Blantyre
Fixed glass screens are held in slim channels or clamps at the floor, walls and ceiling, and the head fixing needs something solid to bite into. Walls and ceilings are rarely perfectly square, so templating records the true shape and the glass is made to follow it, keeping gaps even.
uPVC Windows in Blantyre
uPVC window frames are made from extruded profiles with several internal chambers that trap air and slow heat loss. Larger frames, and those on exposed elevations, are usually reinforced with steel or aluminium inside the profile so they stay straight and the locks keep engaging properly over the years.
Secondary Glazing in Blantyre
Secondary glazing leaves the original window untouched and fits a second, independent window inside it. The air gap between the two works with the glass to reduce noise and heat loss. In most cases the installation can be taken out later without damaging the historic window or reveal.

Glazing in Blantyre: 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.
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 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.
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 you cover Blantyre?
Yes. We cover Blantyre and the surrounding Lanarkshire area, including postcode districts G72, G71 and ML3. Start with your postcode on the quote form and we will arrange a free survey and a written quote.
