What do we fix in Welwyn Garden City?

Single-glazed shop windowA large pane of toughened or laminated glass is made to size and glazed into the existing frame, with new beads or gaskets where the old ones are worn.
Sealed double-glazed unitThe whole unit is replaced at the same overall thickness so that it fits the existing glazing pocket.
Glass door panelDoor glass sits in a critical location, so the replacement must be safety glass of the right impact class.

What does it cost in Welwyn Garden City?

Replacing a shop window pane costs £195 to £895 ex VAT per pane. Size, thickness, glass type and access decide where you fall in that range, and photos with rough sizes are usually enough for a price. Where the pane or frame has to be seen in person, we arrange a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT, and confirm that cost before anyone comes out.

For a broken pane in Welwyn Garden City or anywhere in Hertfordshire, we can provide photos and an itemised invoice for your insurer, who then decides on any claim. We protect the pavement and your stock, keep the opening secure at the end of every shift, and leave the Welwyn Garden City site clean.

Common questions

Do you cover Welwyn Garden City?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Welwyn Garden City and across Hertfordshire, including AL7, AL8. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

Do I have to use safety glass in a shop window?

Yes, in many shopfront positions. Approved Document K in England treats glazing in doors, nearby side panels and low-level glazing as critical locations, and these need safety glass or protection. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we check what applies to your premises.

Can I switch to stronger glass while the pane is out?

Yes, provided the frame and glazing pocket can take it. Laminated and anti-bandit glass is thicker and heavier than a standard pane, so we check the rebate, the beads and the frame first. If the frame cannot carry it, we will tell you what would need changing.

What do I do if my shop in Welwyn Garden City is broken into?

Call the police first if a crime is in progress, then call our 24/7 line on 0800 088 6341. We will tell you the arrival time when you call, and board up or reglaze so the premises are secure.
