Shop window glass replacement in Herne Bay

Smashed glass at a Herne Bay shop goes through our 24/7 emergency line, and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call.

Smashed shop window with glass on the pavement

For a broken pane in Herne Bay or anywhere in Kent, we can provide photos and an itemised invoice for your insurer, who then decides on any claim. If a shop in Herne Bay or elsewhere in Kent needs stronger glass after a break-in, we check the frame can carry it before pricing the work.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 152 miles away, and send fitting teams across the South East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Postcodes we work in around here include CT1, CT2, CT5, and we also cover Canterbury, Margate and Ramsgate nearby.

What can we sort out in Herne Bay?

Fanlights and high panesPanes above the door or display window are replaced with suitable access equipment, agreed in advance if the pavement is affected.
Sealed double-glazed unitThe whole unit is replaced at the same overall thickness so that it fits the existing glazing pocket.
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.

What does it cost in Herne Bay?

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.

A cracked pane in your Herne Bay shop window can often be priced from photos and rough sizes, without anyone needing to visit first. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Herne Bay job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in CT1, CT2, CT5?

Yes. Herne Bay and the CT1, CT2, CT5 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Kent. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

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.

Will my insurer pay for a new shop window?

Your insurer decides that, and we cannot promise a claim will be paid. We can provide photos of the damage and an itemised invoice for them to consider. Some glass policies use their own contractors, so ask your insurer before you book the replacement.

What do I do if my shop in Herne Bay 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.
