Social housing glazing repairs for homes and businesses in Andover
The cost of property glazing work depends on the job type, glass specification, size and number of panes, access, whether boarding is needed first, and whether visits are reactive or planned. Grouping planned work across several properties usually reduces travel and set-up time per job.
Each job is raised with the property address, access arrangements, a contact for the tenant or site, and photos if available. Clear job details let the glazier bring the right materials and boarding, and help avoid a wasted visit when keys or access have not been arranged.
After each job, you receive photos of the before and after condition, the glass specification fitted, and a short note of any other defects seen. This creates a record for the property file, supports insurance claims and can help when deposits or disputes need evidence.
In England, landlords of most residential tenancies have a duty under section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 to keep the structure and exterior in repair. Damage caused by a tenant is usually handled differently, and tenancy terms set out who pays.
What's included
- Make-safe boarding and permanent glass where needed

About Andover for this job
- Postcodes covered
- SP10 and the surrounding area, including Winchester, Newbury and Salisbury
- Coast
- Andover is well inland, around 35 km from the nearest coast, so salt exposure is not usually a factor.
- Daylight and sun
- In Andover the midwinter sun reaches about 15° above the horizon at noon, with roughly 7.6 hours of daylight, rising to about 62° and 16.4 hours in midsummer. South and west-facing flats can overheat and suffer glare, which tenants often report. Solar control glass or film is an option on replacement, and checking for condensation on north-facing windows helps spot ventilation issues in colder months.
- Access and setting
- Rural portfolios can spread across a wide area, so grouping jobs and planned surveys saves visits. Older cottages often have timber windows and non-standard glass sizes, which the glazier measures carefully before ordering replacements.
- Rules in England
- Approved Document K requires safety glass in critical locations in England: glazing in doors and in side panels within 300 mm of a door, up to 1500 mm above floor level, and any glazing in walls or partitions up to 800 mm above floor level.

Property Glazing in Andover: questions
Do you provide a quote for each job before work starts?
Yes. Every job gets a written quote that fixes the price for the specification shown, carrying your reference if you give one. For make-safe work, we confirm the boarding cost before or at the visit, then quote for the permanent glass. Any extra work found on site is quoted separately and only done once approved.
How much does glazing work for landlords cost?
The cost depends on the type of job, glass specification, size and number of panes, access, any boarding needed first, and whether the work is reactive or planned. Grouping planned jobs across properties usually reduces cost per job. See the guide prices for typical work, and every job has its own written quote.
Can you arrange access with our tenants directly?
Yes, if you authorise it. We contact the tenant to arrange a suitable time, confirm the appointment in writing and keep you updated. If access is refused or the tenant is not in, we report back with the dates and times of each attempt, so you have a clear record for your property file.
Do replacement panes in rented homes need to be safety glass?
They do if they are in critical locations. In England, Approved Document K covers glass in doors and within 300mm of a door edge, up to 1500mm above the floor, and other glass within 800mm of the floor. Upgrading old unmarked glass in these places reduces risk, and the rules differ in detail between UK nations.
