Rohini is sector housing at scale - DDA blocks and co-operative societies spread across more than twenty sectors. It is residential work almost end to end: bathrooms, windows, balconies and the repairs that a building of this age generates. The layouts repeat, which makes the work predictable, and the access is nearly always a stair.
No lift, so the stair sets the panel
Almost every block here is ground plus three with no service lift. Panels are carried up by hand, and the turn in the stair decides the biggest one that will make it.
We measure the turn on the same visit as the room. It takes two minutes and it prevents the only genuinely bad outcome in this trade: a made-to-size toughened panel arriving at a building it cannot enter. Toughened glass cannot be trimmed to fit and cannot be persuaded round a corner - when it fails it fails completely.
Where the run needs to be taller than the stair allows, we build it as two panels with a slim vertical joint. From normal viewing distance you will not pick it out.
Repeating layouts, and the saving in them
Rohini was planned, so within a block the flats repeat. The bathrooms are the same size, the windows are the same size, and after a few jobs in a sector we know what we will find.
That is worth money to you in one specific way. The fixed costs in a small glass job are the measuring visit, the delivery and a day of the team's time, and they do not shrink because the job is small. Spread them across two or three flats in the same block and the cost per flat drops noticeably.
So if a neighbour is considering the same work, say so when you call. One trip, one lift or stair session, one set of gate entries - and a better price for each of you.
Mesh, windows and the repairs of a thirty-year-old flat
A lot of what we do in Rohini is not glass at all. Mosquito mesh on the windows and balconies, sliding windows that have stopped running, wardrobe shutters off their track, doors that catch.
Mesh is worth a word because there are several types and they are not interchangeable. Fixed mesh is cheapest and permanent. Sliding mesh runs on the window track. Pleated and roll-up types retract out of the way when you want the view back. They cost different amounts and suit different windows, and we would rather explain the difference than fit the cheapest and let you find out.
For the repairs, the rule is the one we apply everywhere: we check the fitting before we quote a replacement. A window that will not slide is nearly always rollers, not a failed frame.
