Visits in Chepstow and nearby
Chepstow is about 14 miles from Newport, the main centre for Gwent. We can arrange visits across the NP16 district and in nearby places such as Monmouth and Newport.
Gwent includes Newport's city centre and business parks, the terraced former mining towns of the Ebbw and Afon Lwyd valleys, and Monmouthshire market towns like Abergavenny and Monmouth.
This work suits:
- Doors and side panels broken by accident
- Windows smashed in a break-in or attempt
- Cracked panes from settlement or impact
- Shop windows cracked by vandalism
Before the visit
Check the frame
Break-ins often damage beads, hinges and locks too. We check and quote for those at the same time.
Insurance
Check your policy before ordering. Many insurers will pay for like for like; an upgrade may be at your own cost.
What the rules say in Wales
Safety glass in critical locations
In Wales, safety glazing is covered by Approved Document N (glazing) under the Welsh Building Regulations rather than Approved Document K. Glass in doors up to 1,500 mm above the floor, in panes within 300 mm of a door up to 1,500 mm, and in other glazing below 800 mm should be safety glass or protected. Laminated and toughened glass are the usual choices.
Replacing glass in an existing frame
Welsh Government guidance says building regulations have applied to replacement glazing since 1 April 2002, which covers replacing windows and doors. Swapping only the glass or a sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair. New glass in a critical location should still be safety glass, and the council's building control team can confirm anything unclear.

Broken glass replacement in Chepstow: questions
Which areas near Chepstow do you cover?
We can arrange work in Chepstow and in nearby Monmouth (12 miles), Newport (14 miles) and Cwmbran (15 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
Do you board up broken windows?
Where the opening cannot be left and an installer is available, we can arrange temporary boarding until the new glass is fitted.
What happens to the broken glass?
We remove and dispose of it safely as part of the job.
