Commercial reglazing is the replacement of glass in office facades, shopfronts, curtain walling and internal screens, whether it is damaged, misted, unsafe or being upgraded. It often involves large panes, access equipment and work planned around a building that stays open.

Getting the right glass for your building
Coated glass matching
Older solar control glass may no longer be made. We source the closest match and tell you if it will look slightly different.
Access
Ground-level panes may need only towers; upper panes may need a boom lift and highway permits. We plan and price access up front.
What the rules say in England
Listed buildings and conservation areas
In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.
Planning permission
Changing the glass in an existing window or shopfront does not usually need planning permission, because the building looks much the same afterwards. A new or altered shopfront, or security features added to the outside of a building, may need planning permission from the council. Bollards or barriers on the pavement need the highway authority's consent, which is normally the council.
