Ways we can help in Oadby
Emergency Glazing in Oadby
If glass breaks with no clear cause, such as an impact or a break-in, it may be a thermal crack from uneven heating, or a spontaneous breakage in toughened glass. The glazier notes the break pattern, which can help with insurance and with choosing the right replacement glass.
Frameless Glass in Oadby
In buildings other than dwellings in England, large areas of clear glass that people could walk into need manifestation at two levels, 850–1000mm and 1400–1600mm above the floor. A frameless door with a large handle or push plate on each pane is one example the guidance accepts without markings.
Shopfront Glazing in Oadby
For new buildings in England, access guidance gives a minimum effective clear width of 1000mm for external doors used by the general public, and 775mm where an existing building is being altered. Measuring the clear opening, not the door leaf, shows whether an entrance meets that figure.

Glazing in Oadby: 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.
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.
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 landlords and managing agents open an account?
Yes. We can work with landlords, letting agents, housing providers and facilities teams on reactive glass replacement and planned glazing work, with a written quote per job and photos of the finished work on request.
Do you cover Oadby?
