Ways we can help in Wells
Bespoke Mirrors in Wells
A bonded mirror follows the surface behind it, so an uneven wall can bend the reflection. We check flatness at survey, and on uneven plaster or stone walls the mirror may need a flat backing board or the wall levelling first to avoid a wavy, distorted image.
Shopfront Glazing in Wells
Laminated glass holds together when broken because the layers are bonded to a plastic interlayer, so a smashed display pane usually stays in its frame until it is replaced. Toughened glass breaks into small pieces and leaves an open hole, which is why laminated glass is often chosen for street-level shop windows.
Sliding Doors in Wells
Sliding doors use large panels running on rollers within a multi-track frame. A two-panel door has one fixed and one sliding panel, while three or four-track systems let several panels stack behind each other for a wider opening. Panels can also slide into a wall pocket on some systems.

Glazing in Wells: questions
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.
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.
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 do payment and deposits work?
Payment terms are set out on your written quote. For made-to-measure items a deposit may be requested before ordering, and the quote explains when the balance is due.
Do you cover Wells?
