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.

Replacing broken toughened glass with laminated glass costs a little more and makes the same weakness much harder to exploit next time.
Building regulations and safety in England
Safety glass in critical locations
In England, section 5 of Approved Document K treats glazing in doors and in side panels within 300 mm of a door edge, from floor level up to 1,500 mm, and any other glazing below 800 mm, as a critical location. Glass there should break safely, be robust, or be guarded. Laminated or toughened glass meeting BS EN 12600 class 3 is the usual answer, rising to class 2 for door and side-panel panes wider than 900 mm.
Insurer requirements
Insurers set their own conditions for shops, offices, stock and cash, and some name a glazing class such as BS EN 356 P6B in the policy wording. Ask for that wording in writing before you order. The insurer decides whether the glass meets their policy; we provide the glass manufacturer's test evidence with the quote.
How it works
- Describe the damage and send a photo
- Visit price confirmed

Broken glass replacement in Thornton-Cleveleys: questions
Which areas near Thornton-Cleveleys do you cover?
Yes. As well as Thornton-Cleveleys, we can arrange visits in nearby Fleetwood, Blackpool and Lytham St Annes. Dates depend on installer availability.
What happens to the broken glass?
We remove and dispose of it safely as part of the job.
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.
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.
