Ways we can help in Aberdare
Composite Doors in Aberdare
Replacing a front door usually takes a day on site. The old door and frame are cut out, the new frame is fixed, packed and squared, the slab is hung and adjusted, and the frame is sealed outside and trimmed inside. Plaster around older frames sometimes needs making good afterwards.
Curtain Walling in Aberdare
Wind load on a facade rises with height, exposure and building shape, and it decides the mullion size, bracket design and glass thickness. Calculations for the specific site are part of the design, so a system suited to a sheltered ground-floor screen may not suit an exposed upper storey.
Shopfront Glazing in Aberdare
Security glazing is classified under BS EN 356 by its resistance to manual attack. Classes P1A to P5A are tested by dropping a steel ball on the glass from set heights, and the higher classes P6B to P8B are tested with repeated axe and hammer blows.

Glazing in Aberdare: 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 is safety glass and where is it needed?
Safety glass is toughened or laminated glass that breaks in a safer way than ordinary float glass. Building regulations require it in critical locations, such as glass in and beside doors and low-level glazing, and we specify it wherever it is required.
Do you cover my area?
We cover England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Some islands and remote areas are quoted by arrangement. Enter your postcode on the quote form and we will confirm cover before any visit is booked.
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 Aberdare?
Yes. We cover Aberdare and the surrounding Mid Glamorgan area, including postcode districts CF44. Start with your postcode on the quote form and we will arrange a free survey and a written quote.
