Smashed shop window with glass on the pavement

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

Harborne is about 6 miles from our Great Barr base in Birmingham, so surveys are easy to plan. Postcodes we work in around here include B15, B16, B17, and we also cover Selly Oak, Smethwick and Birmingham nearby.

Which faults do we deal with in Harborne?

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.
Upgrade after a break-inYou can move up to laminated or BS EN 356 rated glass, provided the frame can carry the weight and the rebate is deep enough.
Sealed double-glazed unitThe whole unit is replaced at the same overall thickness so that it fits the existing glazing pocket.

What does it cost in Harborne?

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 Harborne 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 Harborne job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in B15, B16, B17?

Yes. Harborne and the B15, B16, B17 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of the West Midlands. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

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.

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 Harborne 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.
