Social housing glazing repairs in Worcestershire: what to know
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.
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.
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.

What applies in Worcestershire
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.
Worcestershire is inland, around 36 km from the nearest coast at its closest point, so salt exposure is rarely a factor.
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 Worcestershire: questions
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.
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.
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.
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.
