Ways we can help in Aston
Roof Lanterns in Aston
Glass for lanterns usually comes with a self-cleaning outer coating that helps rain wash away dirt, and a choice of clear, neutral or blue-tinted solar-control glass. Solar-control glass limits heat build-up under a south-facing lantern, while clear low-E glass suits shaded or north-facing rooms.
Bifold Doors in Aston
Creating a new bifold opening in an external wall is structural work that needs building regulations approval and a correctly sized lintel or steel beam. Replacing existing doors in the same opening is simpler. Planning permission may also be needed for new openings in listed buildings, flats or conservation areas.
Glass Partitions in Aston
Where a partition forms part of a protected escape route or fire compartment, it must be a tested fire-resistant glazed system, with glass, frame, seals and fixings tested together. Ratings use letters such as E for integrity and EI for integrity plus insulation, followed by the minutes achieved.

Glazing in Aston: questions
Can I cancel after accepting a quote?
If you contract at home or remotely, you normally have 14 days to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Made-to-measure goods that have been made to your specification may not be cancellable once production starts; your quote and terms explain this clearly.
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 should I do if a window has just broken?
Keep people and pets away from the glass, wear thick gloves if you need to move anything, and call us. We can arrange boarding or temporary glazing to make the opening safe, then measure for permanent glass. If there has been a break-in, report it to the police and note the reference for your insurer.
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.
