Social housing glazing repairs for homes and businesses in Leicestershire

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.

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.

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.

Glass replaced in doors, beside doors and at low level should be safety glass in critical locations. In England, Approved Document K sets out these locations. Recording that safety glass was fitted, and keeping the photo of its marking, helps show the property was kept safe.

What applies in Leicestershire

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.

Leicestershire is inland, around 63 km from the nearest coast at its closest point, so salt exposure is rarely a factor.

Urban portfolios often include flats above shops, HMOs and blocks with communal entrances. Access, parking, keys and tenant contact need planning, and ground-floor glass facing the street benefits from laminated glass and secure locks.

Property Glazing in Leicestershire: questions

Can you carry out a planned glazing survey across our portfolio?

Yes. A glazier visits each property and records the condition of glass and windows, including unmarked glass in critical locations, misted units, cracks, failed hardware and missing restrictors. You receive a schedule with photos and recommended work, so you can prioritise safety items and budget for the rest.

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.

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.

Do you work on communal areas and commercial premises?

Yes. We cover communal entrance doors, stairwell windows and glazed screens in blocks and HMOs, as well as offices and shops managed by agents and facilities teams. Large communal panels often need laminated or toughened glass and careful planning for access, so these jobs normally start with a survey.
