AS 1288 Grade A glass
5,000+ panes replaced
We work on every common Sydney window: double-hung timber sashes bedded in putty, aluminium sliders and awnings held by rubber gaskets, louvres, casements and large fixed panes. Homes fill most of the week, though the same method covers units, shopfronts and offices. Glass set into a door is a different job, covered by our sliding door glass re-glazing work.
Six jobs cover nearly every window callout we take, from a single cracked pane to emergency glass replacement after a break-in. Anything that cannot wait until morning goes through our after-hours broken window callouts.
Fixed panels, awning windows and shopfront glass in units, offices and strata buildings. Entry doors sit under commercial and office glass doors.
The same standard governs wet-area glazing, which is why a bathroom pane is never plain float — explained further on our shower screen glass repairs page.

Most single panes in a standard Sydney window fall between $250 and $550 supplied and fitted, with laminated, oversized and double-glazed units above that. Two windows the same size can carry very different glass, so five things move a quote — and all five are settled before we book you in.
The broken pane close up and the whole window from a step back. Frame type and glass size read straight off those.
Houses, units, shopfronts and offices, from the inner west out through Western Sydney and the Hills. Everything else we touch sits under our full range of glazing work. Your suburb missing? Ask anyway — the van travels further than most.
The glass has to be replaced. A crack cannot be healed, and tape or resin only hides it while it keeps spreading across the pane. The useful part is that only the glass is replaced, not the window — your timber or aluminium frame stays where it is and a new pane is cut to the exact opening.
Replacing the glass alone is far cheaper, and it is the right call whenever the frame is sound. A new pane uses your existing frame, hardware and seals, so you pay for glass and labour rather than a whole window unit and the carpentry around it. Full replacement only makes sense when the frame itself has rotted, corroded or dropped out of square.
Replacement means a new pane in the existing frame, which is what broken, cracked and fogged glass needs. Repair means work on everything around the glass — re-bedding loose putty, renewing seals and gaskets, freeing a stuck sash or fixing rollers and locks. Most callouts are a replacement, often with a small repair alongside it.
A standard pane in a timber or aluminium frame is usually done inside an hour once we are on site. Toughened, laminated, oversized and double-glazed units have to be cut or made up first, which adds a day or two before fitting. You get a firm date when you book, and a broken window is made safe in the meantime.
Whatever AS 1288 requires for that opening. Windows near a door, close to floor level or in a wet area need Grade A safety glass — laminated, which holds together when it breaks, or toughened, which crumbles into small blunt pieces. Higher windows away from foot traffic can take float glass. The choice comes with the quote.
It depends on the size of the pane, the glass grade the opening needs, the frame type and the access. A small single pane in a ground-floor aluminium slider sits at the bottom of the range; a large laminated or double-glazed unit upstairs sits at the top. You get a fixed figure in writing before anyone starts.
Yes, and it is some of the work we enjoy most. Older Sydney sashes hold their glass with linseed putty or slim timber beads. We soften and lift the old putty carefully, take the pane out, then bed the new glass in fresh putty or matching beads. The frame keeps its age and its paint lines.
The fog means the edge seal inside the sealed unit has failed and moisture has worked between the two panes, where no cleaning can reach. The fix is to replace the sealed unit itself — both panes and the spacer — while your existing frame stays in place. The clear view and the insulation come back together.
Constantly. Aluminium sliders hold their glass with rubber gaskets and wedge seals rather than putty. We lift the sash out, remove the broken pane, fit new glass with fresh rubbers and set the sash back on its rollers. Seals that have gone hard with age are replaced at the same time.
Yes. Break-ins, storm damage and any opening left exposed to the street are treated as emergencies. We board the opening and make it safe first, then return with the correct glass once it has been cut or made up.
Most home contents and landlord policies include accidental glass breakage, though excesses differ. We cannot lodge the claim for you, so contact your insurer directly — and ask us for the itemised quote and damage photos when you book, because that is what they usually want to see.
Yes. The van covers the whole metro map — Blacktown, Mount Druitt, Penrith, Parramatta, Liverpool, Bankstown, the Hills, and across the eastern and southern suburbs. Most suburbs have their own page, listed in the service area section above.
