Ways we can help in Penarth
Secondary Glazing in Penarth
Slim aluminium frames are designed to sit within the window reveal and line up with the original glazing bars or meeting rails. Matching sightlines keeps the secondary unit discreet from outside and inside, which matters for period homes and conservation areas.
Roof Lanterns in Penarth
Cutting a new opening for a roof lantern or skylight usually means trimming joists or rafters, so the roof can carry the load around the hole. Building regulations approval is generally needed for a new rooflight, covering structure, energy performance and, near a boundary, fire performance.
Shower Screens in Penarth
Shower screen glass is toughened safety glass made to BS EN 12150. It is heated and then quickly cooled during manufacture, which makes it much stronger than ordinary glass and means that if it does break, it breaks into small, blunt pieces rather than sharp shards.

Glazing in Penarth: questions
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.
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 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.
