Things to think about

Insurance

Check your policy before ordering. Many insurers will pay for like for like; an upgrade may be at your own cost.

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.

Building regulations and safety in England

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.

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.

How it works

  1. Describe the damage and send a photo
  2. Visit price confirmed
  3. Measure and make safe if needed
  4. Glass agreed, ordered and fitted

Broken glass replacement in Hebburn: questions

Do you cover Jarrow as well as Hebburn?

Yes. As well as Hebburn, we can arrange visits in nearby Jarrow, Wallsend and Felling. 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.

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.

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.
