Which faults do we deal with in Folkestone?
What does it cost in Folkestone?
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.
Replacement panes for shops in Folkestone and across Kent are made to measure, and we confirm the typical lead time when we give you the price. We protect the pavement and your stock, keep the opening secure at the end of every shift, and leave the Folkestone site clean.
Common questions
Can you come out to Folkestone for a survey?
Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Folkestone. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.
How long does replacement glass take?
Replacement shop glass typically takes from a few days to a few weeks, because each pane is made to measure. Toughened and special panes tend to take longer than a simple laminate. We confirm the typical lead time with your price and can board the opening meanwhile.
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.
What do I do if my shop in Folkestone 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.
