Herefordshire: managing agent glazing services

The Housing Health and Safety Rating System is used by councils in England to assess hazards in homes. Its hazards include collision and entrapment, which covers glazing, falls between levels, which covers windows, and entry by intruders. Broken glass and faulty window locks can fall under these headings.

A planned glazing survey checks each property for unmarked glass in critical locations, misted units, cracked panes, failed hinges and locks, and missing restrictors. The resulting schedule lets you budget and prioritise, rather than reacting to faults one at a time.

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.

Flats, HMOs and blocks often have communal entrance doors and screens with large glass panels. These see heavy use and impact, so laminated or toughened glass and solid door closers matter. Planned checks on communal glazing reduce the risk of sudden failures.

What applies in Herefordshire

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.

Approved Document Q applies to new homes in England, where doors and windows are expected to meet PAS 24 or an equivalent standard. It does not apply to replacements in existing homes, but PAS 24 products are still a sensible choice.

Parts of Herefordshire are within about 16 km of the coast, where exposure to wind and salt air is worth planning for. Coastal portfolios see more salt corrosion on window hardware and more strain on seals from wind-driven rain. Planned checks on hinges, locks and sealed units help spot problems early, especially in seafront flats and holiday lets.

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.

Property Glazing in Herefordshire: 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.

Who pays when a tenant breaks a window?

That depends on the tenancy agreement and the circumstances. In England, landlords have repairing duties for the structure and exterior of most residential lets, but damage caused by the tenant or their visitors is usually the tenant's responsibility. Many agents recover it from the deposit or by agreement. Our photos and report help document the damage.

What reports and photos do we get after each job?

You receive before and after photos, the glass specification fitted, a note of any safety glass marking, and any other defects the glazier noticed, such as failed hinges or misted units nearby. The invoice matches the approved quote and carries your reference, making it easy to check and file.

How do we raise a glazing job for one of our properties?

Send the job by form, phone, email or WhatsApp with the property address, a description of the problem, access details, a tenant or site contact, and any photos. Add your order reference if you use one. We confirm the job, arrange a glazier to survey or make safe, and send a written quote that carries your reference.
