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.
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.
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 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.
A domestic glazier cuts, fits, and seals glass in windows, doors, roof panels, and shower screens. They also remove broken panes, refit beading, and re-seal failed units. Most work is done on-site with the existing frames kept. Always check the glazier has public liability cover before booking.
Modern uPVC windows use rubber gaskets and plastic snap-in beads. Timber frames often use linseed oil putty or a flexible silicone sealant. The right product depends on the frame material. Ask which sealant the glazier will use, since wrong sealant causes leaks within the first wet season.
Single glass is one sheet, usually 3 mm or 4 mm thick, cheap to replace but poor for insulation. Double glazing uses two panes with a 12 mm to 16 mm air gap, cutting heat loss and street noise. Prices rise sharply with double units because the sealed unit is factory-made, not cut on site.
Watch for mist inside double glazing, which means the seal has failed and the unit needs replacement. Other issues include rattling panes, water ingress at the sill, and cracked putty within 6 to 18 months. Request a written warranty covering sealed units for 5 to 10 years and workmanship for 12 months.
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.
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.
