FAQ

Answers to frequently asked questions.

Do I need planning permission to install a glass balustrade?

In most cases, no — especially if it’s under a certain height and not overlooking a neighbour’s property. However, we always help check your situation against local planning rules to keep things compliant.

What’s the difference between frameless and post systems?

Frameless systems offer a seamless, modern look with minimal hardware. Post systems use stainless or powder-coated posts for a structured appearance. The best choice depends on your style, budget, and location.

How safe is a glass balustrade for children and pets?

Extremely safe. We only use BS EN 12150-rated toughened safety glass, the same grade used in public buildings. Proper installation ensures no gaps or hazards.

Will the glass get dirty or need constant cleaning?

Glass does attract marks, especially outdoors, but we use materials that are easy to clean and can recommend optional treatments to reduce watermarks or grime buildup.

How much does installation cost?

It depends on the style (frameless vs. post), length, and complexity. We provide transparent, fixed quotes after a quick site survey — no hidden fees.

How long does the installation take?

Most projects are completed in 1 to 2 days. Larger or more complex installs may take a bit longer, but we always schedule in advance and work efficiently.

Do you handle everything or do I need other trades?

We handle the full process: design, supply, install, and final checks. No other trades are needed unless structural work is involved (which we’ll advise on).

What areas do you cover?

We install throughout Greater Manchester and surrounding areas, including Cheshire, Bolton, Oldham, Stockport, Rochdale, and more.
