Social housing glazing repairs for homes and businesses in Bognor Regis
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.
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.
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.
Tenant access is often the biggest cause of delay. With your permission, we contact tenants directly to arrange a convenient time, confirm the visit in writing and report back if access is refused, so you have a clear record of every attempt to complete the job.
What a typical job includes
- Before and after photos with a short report
- Invoice matching the approved quote

About Bognor Regis for this job
- Postcodes covered
- PO21, PO22 and the surrounding area, including Chichester, Littlehampton and Worthing
- Coast
- Bognor Regis is about 1 km from the coast or a tidal estuary, so salt air and wind-driven rain are 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.
- Daylight and sun
- In Bognor Regis the midwinter sun reaches about 16° above the horizon at noon, with roughly 7.7 hours of daylight, rising to about 63° and 16.3 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
- 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.
- 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 Bognor Regis: questions
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.
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.
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.
