Visits in Daventry and nearby
Daventry is about 12 miles from Northampton, the main centre for Northamptonshire. We can arrange visits across the NN11 district and in nearby places such as Rugby and Northampton.
Northamptonshire mixes Northampton's town-centre retail and Victorian shoe-trade streets with newer estates around Corby and Wellingborough and stone villages towards Oundle.
Common situations:
- Glass damaged during building work
- Shop windows cracked by vandalism
- Windows smashed in a break-in or attempt
- Cracked panes from settlement or impact
Getting the best result
Check the frame
Break-ins often damage beads, hinges and locks too. We check and quote for those at the same time.
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.
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.

Broken glass replacement in Daventry: questions
Can you visit addresses near Daventry?
We can arrange work in Daventry and in nearby Rugby (9 miles), Northampton (12 miles) and Leamington Spa (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.
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.
Can you give me paperwork for my insurer?
Yes. We provide a written description of the damage, the work and the glass fitted, which you can send with your claim.
