Most repair calls from Banashankari are about parts that have worn out, not glass that has broken. A shower door whose hinges have rusted. A sliding panel off its track. A handle that has worked loose and pulled the door out of line. Knowing which it is before anyone travels is what turns this into one visit instead of two.
What we would repair, and what we would not
If the glass is good and only the hinges, rollers, seals or handle have gone, that is a real repair. It costs a small part of a new enclosure, and we will say so rather than quote the bigger job.
Sometimes the frame has rusted, the seals have gone hard and the silicone has failed. Fixing one of the three then buys a few months. No more than that.
Send a photo of the door edge and the bottom track, or a short video if the door moves badly. That usually settles it before anyone travels. It means the right parts are on the van the first time.
Matching replacement glass in an older house
Where a panel does have to be replaced, we match the type, the thickness and any frosting. Frosting is the cloudy finish that stops you seeing through. The new piece should not stand out beside the ones around it.
On glass that has been in place for twenty years, there can be a very slight difference in colour. We tell you if we expect that, rather than let you find it after fitting.
A new panel comes with us taking the old one away. Where we cannot fit the same day, we make the opening safe on the first visit and come back once the new panel is made.
How the job works
- Tell us about the jobSend a few photos, rough sizes and what you need. Use WhatsApp or the form. For a repair, a short video of the door moving helps a lot.
- We call you backUsually the same day. Where we can, we give you a rough price on the call. Then you know if a visit is worth your time.
- We come and measureWe measure the opening. We also check the walls, floor, ceiling and the way in. Your glass is made to these final sizes, so they must be right.
- You get a written priceIt shows the glass, the fittings and the fitting work as separate lines. If anything about the job changes, we tell you before we go ahead.
- We make it and fit itYou approve the price and pay the advance. Then we make your glass. Our team delivers it, fits it, checks the doors line up and clears the site.
