Ways we can help in Taunton
Curtain Walling in Taunton
BS EN 13830 is the product standard for curtain walling. It treats the system as a kit, including its fixings, set from vertical up to 15 degrees off vertical. Sloping roof glazing and patent glazing fall outside it and are covered by other standards.
Window Repairs in Taunton
A uPVC or composite door with a multipoint lock has one central gearbox that drives hooks, rollers or bolts along the door edge. A failed gearbox can leave the door stuck locked or unable to lock. In many cases only the gearbox needs replacing, not the whole strip.
Glass Balustrades in Taunton
Where a building may be used by children under five, the guidance in England says guarding should not let a 100mm sphere pass through any opening and should not be easy to climb. Solid glass helps on both counts, but gaps between panels, posts, walls and the floor still need checking.

Glazing in Taunton: questions
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 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.
Who will actually do the work?
Work is carried out by glaziers working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with. Your quote names the company, the specification and the guarantee terms.
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 you cover Taunton?
Yes. We cover Taunton and the surrounding Somerset area, including postcode districts TA1. Start with your postcode on the quote form and we will arrange a free survey and a written quote.
