Title: Broken pane of glass.
Post by: Window Lickers on September 12, 2014, 08:48:31 am
We were cleaning an old place in the week with sash windows where the runners needed a good going over when Darren put his brush through a pane of glass.

Now not one to turn my back on something like that I told the people renting it. She was fine and said she'd speak to the fella who manages the property.

Anyway he got back to me yesterday with a quote to sort out the damage. The pane of glass is about 10" x 8" his quote was £175.00 incl V.A.T.  :o :o

So I've just called a glass supplier based about 30 miles away that supply glass required for listed buildings - he quoted me 20 sheets. (Hand blown cylinder glass)

Looks like Darren's going for a drive when he gets back  ;D

Sounds a bit steep to me. I broke a pain on a sash window a few years ago it was about 30" x 20" and cost £90 and it was 3 stories high.

£20 for the glass. Then pay for it fitting. Putty or beading. I would say £100 at least
