Guide prices for a replacement pane in Wimbledon are £174 to £714 including VAT (£145 to £595 plus VAT), including the glass. The visit charge, from £174 including VAT (£145 plus VAT), is confirmed before we attend and deducted from the price if you go ahead.
Broken glass replacement means clearing a cracked or smashed pane, measuring the opening and fitting new glass, which is often the right moment to upgrade to laminated security glass. It covers windows, doors, shopfronts and screens in homes and businesses.
What the work covers
- Like-for-like or laminated security upgrade
- Loose and broken glass removed safely
- Measuring and ordering of made-to-measure glass
- Temporary boarding where an installer is available
- Written description of the work for insurance claims

Things to think about
Making safe first
If the opening cannot be left, temporary boarding protects the building while the new glass is made.
Check the frame
Break-ins often damage beads, hinges and locks too. We check and quote for those at the same time.
Consents and safety: 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.
How it works
- Describe the damage and send a photo
- Visit price confirmed
- Measure and make safe if needed
- Glass agreed, ordered and fitted
