Ways we can help in Shepton Mallet
Bifold Doors in Shepton Mallet
Bifold doors are glazed down to floor level, so every pane needs safety glass. In England, Approved Document K treats glazing in doors within 1500mm of the floor as a critical location. Units are usually toughened, with laminated glass added where extra security or protection against falls is wanted.
uPVC Windows in Shepton Mallet
Low-level glass needs safety glazing. In England, Approved Document K treats any glazed panel within 800mm of the floor as a critical location, so a full-height pane, a low picture window or glass beside a door usually needs toughened or laminated glass, permanently marked to show its classification.
Glass Balustrades in Shepton Mallet
Glass balustrades need little upkeep beyond cleaning with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Outdoors, rinse grit and salt from fittings, keep drainage slots in channels clear, and check clamps, spigots and handrail joints once a year for any loosening or movement.

Glazing in Shepton Mallet: questions
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.
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.
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 only replace glass, or whole windows too?
Both. Many problems, such as a cracked pane, a misted sealed unit or a broken hinge, can be fixed without replacing the frame. When a frame is rotten, warped or past repair, we quote for new uPVC, aluminium or timber-effect windows and doors instead, and we say which option makes more sense for your property.
