Visits in Newcastle-under-Lyme and nearby
Newcastle-under-Lyme is about 2 miles from Stoke-on-Trent, the main centre for Staffordshire. We can arrange visits across the ST5 district and in nearby places such as Stoke-on-Trent and Longton.
Staffordshire mixes Stoke-on-Trent's Victorian pottery-town terraces with Lichfield's cathedral quarter, Burton's brewery streets and newer estates around Tamworth and Cannock.
This work suits:
- Cracked panes from settlement or impact
- Windows smashed in a break-in or attempt
- Glass damaged during building work
- Doors and side panels broken by accident
Before the visit
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.
What the rules say in England
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.
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.
