Ways we can help in Wishaw
Shopfront Glazing in Wishaw
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.
Glass Balustrades in Wishaw
Toughened glass can occasionally break without impact because of tiny nickel sulphide inclusions. Heat soak testing to BS EN 14179 reduces that risk by breaking flawed panels in the factory, but it does not remove it entirely, which is one more reason laminated glass is used in guarding.
Glass Splashbacks in Wishaw
Splashbacks are made from toughened glass because it copes with heat from a hob and with the stress around socket cut-outs far better than ordinary glass. Untoughened coloured glass is more prone to cracking behind a hob or across a cut-out, so we only fit toughened panels.

Glazing in Wishaw: questions
How long does a job take?
Glass is made to measure, so there is usually a lead time between survey and fitting. Fitting a sealed unit is normally quick; new windows, doors and architectural glass take longer. Your quote gives the expected lead time and how long the fitting will take on site.
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.
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 my information shared with anyone?
Your enquiry is used to arrange your survey and quote. It is handled by the S&K Group and the glazier assigned to your job, and is not sold to third parties. See the privacy policy for full details.
