How a Glass Replacement Works

  1. Measure. We come to you, measure the opening and confirm the right glass type for where it sits.
  2. Quote. You get a firm price before any work starts. No obligation.
  3. Replace. We remove the broken glass, clean the frame, fit the new pane with new beading or sealant, and take the broken glass away.

Most standard panes are done within one to two hours on site. Odd sizes and specialty glass are cut to order, usually within a few working days.

Frequently Asked Questions

We offer a wide range of glass types including clear float glass, toughened (tempered) safety glass, laminated glass, obscured/frosted glass, and energy-efficient options. We'll recommend the best type based on your application, whether it's for windows, doors, shopfronts, or custom installations.

Most standard glass replacements can be completed within 1-2 hours once we arrive on site. For custom-sized or specialty glass that needs to be ordered, we'll provide a clear timeline—usually within 2-5 working days. Emergency replacements for security purposes are prioritized.

Yes, we understand that broken glass can be a security risk. We offer prompt emergency glass replacement services across Johannesburg. Contact us immediately if you have a broken window or door that needs urgent attention, and we'll do our best to assist you as quickly as possible.

Absolutely. We specialize in replacing glass within existing aluminium window and door frames. This is often more cost-effective than replacing the entire unit. We carefully remove the broken glass, clean the frame, and install new glass with proper seals and beading.

Yes, we supply and install toughened (tempered) and laminated safety glass. Toughened glass is up to 5 times stronger than regular glass and breaks into small, less dangerous pieces. Laminated glass holds together when shattered. Both are ideal for doors, shopfronts, and areas requiring enhanced safety or security.

Usually just the glass. If your frame is sound we replace the broken pane in the existing aluminium, steel or wooden frame, which is faster and cheaper than a new window. If the frame itself is bent, rusted or rotten, we can supply and fit a new made-to-order aluminium window instead, and we will tell you which one you actually need.

It depends on the size of the pane and the type of glass (clear, toughened, laminated, obscure or tinted). We measure on site and give you a firm quote before any work starts, with no obligation. Replacing the glass alone is almost always far cheaper than replacing the window.

Yes. Sliding door glass replacement is one of our most common jobs. We fit toughened safety glass in sliding, folding, stacking, pivot and hinged doors, and we can re-seal the panel and check the rollers while we are there.

We cover Johannesburg and the wider Gauteng area, including the northern suburbs, the West Rand, the East Rand and Midrand. Contact us with your address and we will confirm the earliest slot.
