Visits in Crewe and nearby
Crewe is about 21 miles from Warrington, the main centre for Cheshire. We can arrange visits across the CW1 district and in nearby places such as Winsford and Kidsgrove.
Cheshire mixes Chester's Rows and listed black-and-white frontages with Victorian terraces in Crewe and Macclesfield, and business parks and newer estates around Warrington.
Common situations:
- Cracked panes from settlement or impact
- Glass damaged during building work
- Doors and side panels broken by accident
- Windows smashed in a break-in or attempt
Getting the best result
Making safe first
If the opening cannot be left, temporary boarding protects the building while the new glass is made.
Like for like or upgrade
Replacing broken toughened glass with laminated glass costs a little more and makes the same weakness much harder to exploit next time.
Rules that apply in England
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.
Fire-rated glass is different
Glass in fire doors, fire screens and protected escape routes has to be fire-rated glass tested as part of that door or screen system, under Approved Document B and the fire safety duties of the building's responsible person. Laminated and security glass are not fire-rated unless the product says so. Where a pane needs both fire and security performance, it must be a product tested for both.

Broken glass replacement in Crewe: questions
Can you visit addresses near Crewe?
We can arrange work in Crewe and in nearby Winsford (7 miles), Kidsgrove (8 miles) and Congleton (11 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
What happens to the broken glass?
We remove and dispose of it safely as part of the job.
How quickly can broken glass be replaced?
The new glass has to be made to measure, so lead times depend on the type and size. Temporary boarding can be arranged where an installer is available; we do not promise a fixed response time.
Should I replace broken glass with laminated glass?
If the pane was broken in a break-in, yes, usually. Laminated glass holds together when struck, so the same route is much harder to use again.
