Fitting in Inverness and nearby
We arrange surveys and fitting across Inverness and the IV1 postcode district, and in nearby Dingwall (11 miles), Nairn (15 miles) and Aviemore.
Highland is vast and thinly populated, with Inverness's city centre and retail parks, towns such as Fort William, Aviemore and Thurso, and remote properties where glass deliveries need planning.
Common uses:
- Shopfronts and showrooms
- Blocks of flats with communal glazing
- Office facades and curtain walling
- Schools, libraries and council buildings
What to think about first
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.
Match or upgrade
Like-for-like keeps the facade consistent. Upgrading to laminated or safety glass is often worth it at ground level.
Consents and safety: Scotland
Planning permission
Under the Scottish planning system the council decides whether a new or altered shopfront needs planning permission; changing the glass in an existing frame usually does not. Bollards or barriers in a road or footway need consent from the roads authority, which is normally the council.
Glazing in workplaces
Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 applies in Scotland. Windows and transparent surfaces in walls, partitions, doors and gates must be of safety material or protected against breakage where health or safety requires it, and marked so people see them. The duty holder's risk assessment decides where.

Do you cover Dingwall as well as Inverness?
Yes. As well as Inverness, we can arrange surveys in nearby Dingwall, Nairn and Aviemore. Dates depend on installer availability.

Yes, replacing glass within existing curtain wall and shopfront systems, subject to a survey of the framing and gaskets.
Who arranges permits for lifts on the pavement?
We do, as part of planning the job, and include the cost in the price.
Should we upgrade to laminated glass while reglazing?
At ground level and in doors, often yes. It adds safety and security for a modest extra cost.
