Rules that apply in England
Planning permission
Changing the glass in an existing window or shopfront does not usually need planning permission, because the building looks much the same afterwards. A new or altered shopfront, or security features added to the outside of a building, may need planning permission from the council. Bollards or barriers on the pavement need the highway authority's consent, which is normally the council.
Replacing glass in an existing frame
Replacing only the glass or sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair in England rather than notifiable building work. Replacing a whole window or door is notifiable and is normally certified through a competent person scheme or approved by building control. Either way, new glass in a critical location should still be safety glass.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.
Security glazing in Nailsea: questions
Do you fit security glass in Nailsea?
Yes. We can arrange surveys and fitting in Nailsea and the BS48 area.
How much does security glass cost in Nailsea?
Budget £162 to £474 including VAT (£135 to £395 plus VAT) per window for security glass for home windows in Nailsea, supplied and fitted. Larger panes, thicker makeups and difficult access cost more; the price is fixed in writing after the survey.
Can you survey in Nailsea and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Nailsea, Portishead and Clevedon are booked around installer availability.
Do you cover my area?
We cover England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Islands and remote areas are arranged individually.
Do I need approval to replace glass?
In England and Wales, replacing glass alone in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair, while replacing whole windows or doors is notifiable building work. Scotland uses building warrants and Northern Ireland its own building control system, so ask the council's building control if you are unsure. New glass in a critical location should be safety glass everywhere.
