Glaziers

Featuring the best glaziers in New Zealand

Specialist glaziers have experience working with different types of glass and understand the different uses and where glass fixtures will work best. Residential glaziers can assist with installing doors, windows, shower doors, bath enclosures, and other glass fixtures around homes. Alternatively, commercial glaziers specialise in decorative glass room dividers, sliding doors and more at businesses, offices and other commercial properties. Due to the delicate nature of glass and the expertise required to work with it, ArchiPro has partnered with only the most reliable glaziers in New Zealand to assist with your next construction project.

Types of services that a glazier provides

When it comes to specialist window glaziers or expert glass artisans, working with glass requires finesse and a delicate, experienced approach. These experts in New Zealand are able to measure, make and install all types of fixtures. Some of the services provided by the best glaziers include:

Cut glass according to size

These experts will follow building plans and blueprints to cut glass to size. They’ll also work alongside other window and door professionals in New Zealand to ensure the colour, type and thickness match the blueprints.

Remove existing glass

Most glass replacement companies will also remove any existing glass fixtures and replace them with new ones. This includes the replacement of double-glazed windows, doors and other fixtures.

Install new glass fixtures

These experts can also install new fixtures into frames using clips, mouldings and other fasteners. They’ll also weather seal or putty to reinforce and seal the joints. If required, they can also assist with window tinting.

Repairs

Emergency glaziers are available to assist with emergency glass replacement and glazing refurbishment. They can also assist with double-glazed window repairs and maintenance.

The advantages of hiring a skilled glazier

A skilled glazier is able to efficiently work alongside the other professionals on your project, such as the joinery installation and repair experts, architects and building contractors in New Zealand. They are experienced working with glass and can assist you in choosing the right type and colour for your project. Working with a reliable glazier will ensure that any glass installations in your project, from rotating doors to balcony walls, are installed correctly and safely and will last a long time. Without the assistance of a professional glass installation company, your project could face safety hazards, unexpected delays and even non-compliance with building regulations.

How to choose the best glaziers for your project

When it comes to choosing the best glaziers in New Zealand, you can’t afford to cut corners. You should carefully consider the professionals available in your area. Look at their business profiles, previous projects and customer testimonials, all of which can be done on ArchiPro, to get a sense of the different experts. Once you’ve narrowed down your list of potential candidates, you should arrange a meeting with them. This initial meeting is crucial as you can discuss the project and get a better idea of the expert before deciding who you want to work with and who’s the best fit for your project. During this initial meeting, you can ask your glazier company the following questions:

• How long have you been involved in the construction and glass industry in New Zealand?
• Have you worked on a similar project in the past, and how was the experience?
• How long does it take to cut and install the glass for this particular project?
• Do you have any licensing or insurance in New Zealand?
• Who covers the costs in case anything breaks during installation?
