Glass repair FAQs
Are you available 24/7 for emergency glass repairs?
Yes. We have a glazier on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for emergency glass repairs.
Please note that after-hours call-out fees apply.
Can you board up a broken window after a break-in?
Yes. If your window has been broken due to a break-in or accident, we can secure the opening with temporary boarding to make your property safe.
We can then return to measure and install the correct replacement glass once it has been manufactured.
How long does it take to repair a window?
Most repair appointments start from approximately one hour.
However, the total time can vary depending on factors such as:
Window size
Second-storey access
Restricted access
Type of glass required
What types of glass repairs do you do?
We repair and replace glass in a wide range of applications, including:
Wooden window frames
Aluminium windows and doors
Steel frames
Shopfronts
Internal glass partitions
Ranchsliders and doors
Picture frames
And many other glass applications
If it’s glass, we can help.
Do you carry glass in stock?
Yes. We carry a range of stock glass sheets in various thicknesses and types, which allows us to cut glass to size either in our factory or onsite.
This often means we can complete many repairs on the same day where possible.
Will my insurance cover broken glass?
Many insurance policies include cover for accidental glass breakage or damage caused by events such as storms or break-ins.
We recommend contacting your insurance provider to confirm your cover. We can also provide quotes and documentation to support insurance claims if required.
