Glaziers seal glass with silicone, acrylic, or linseed-oil putty depending on the frame. Timber frames usually take putty, uPVC frames use rubber gaskets and snap-in beads. Ask which sealant will be used and its expected lifespan, since cheap silicone can yellow or peel within 12 months on sun-facing faces.
Replacing a single broken pane takes 30 to 60 minutes once the glass is on the van. Double-glazed unit swaps take 2 to 3 hours including sealant cure time. Full window frame replacement with plastering can run 4 to 6 hours. Order custom or patterned glass takes 5 to 10 working days.
Doors, low windows, and bathroom screens must use toughened or laminated safety glass by code. Toughened glass shatters into small cubes, laminated holds together when broken. A glazier should confirm the rating stamp before cutting. Replacing a broken panel with ordinary glass is unsafe and may fail inspection.
A glazier measures, cuts, fits, and seals glass panels in windows, doors, shower screens, and shopfronts. The job covers single panes, double glazing, and safety glass. Most glaziers also remove old putty, swap broken panes, and adjust hinges or stays. Ask if the work includes site cleanup and frame repair.
Glaziers also cut mirrors to size and install framed or frameless shower screens. Splashbacks are usually 6 mm toughened glass, painted on the back. Allow 2 to 3 weeks from template to install, since toughened glass cannot be re-cut once it has been heat-treated at the factory.
Watch for mist or condensation inside a sealed unit within the first 12 months; this means the seal has failed and the unit needs replacing. Loose beading, rattles in wind, or water pooling at the bottom corners point to poor fitting. These symptoms should be reported to the glazier in writing.
Price depends on glass type, thickness, shape, and whether the pane is toughened or laminated. Access height, frame condition, and whether beading needs replacing also matter. Larger panes over about 1.5 square metres cost more per piece because they are heavier to handle and transport safely.
The glazier measures width and height in three places each, top, middle, and bottom, and uses the smallest reading. They also check the frame depth, the rebate size, and the clearance for the glass to expand. For sealed units, a physical visit is needed; phone measurements are not reliable.
Single glass is one pane, usually 3 mm or 4 mm thick. A double glazing unit is two panes separated by a spacer, creating an insulating gap of about 12 mm to 20 mm. Replacing just one pane inside a sealed unit is not possible; the whole unit must be made to size and swapped.
Look for a tradesperson who carries public liability insurance, usually 5 to 10 million in cover. Check they give written quotes, supply safety-rated glass, and accept card or bank transfer with a receipt. Avoid cash-only operators and anyone who refuses to show the safety stamp on the glass before fitting.
