Clients. Architects. Main contractors.
The same engineering, seen from three different positions. Use the section that describes you — or read all three, because on most projects all three are in the same conversation.
One team from the first conversation to the final mastic
You have an idea for a space full of light. We take it from there — advising on what is possible, agreeing the design, and installing it with our own teams.
- No-obligation site visit
- Budget guidance before you design
- Live programme dates
- Aftercare and glass repair
Straight answers, early
Before you commit to anything, we tell you what structural glass can and cannot do on your site, what it is likely to cost as a range, and how long it will take.
One point of contact
The person who visits your home is part of the team that engineers and installs the glass. You are not passed between departments.
Our own installers
We install the glass ourselves rather than subcontracting it. Handling and setting large structural glass is where projects go wrong, so we keep it in-house.
Guarantees you can hold
Documented workmanship and product guarantees, with aftercare and glass repair once the scaffolding has gone.
Design assist, from concept to construction issue
We work at the point where the drawing meets physics. Bring us in early and we will protect the design intent through engineering, cost and buildability.
- Concept-stage feasibility
- Bespoke bracket and interface design
- Low-iron, coating and finish options
- Coordinated with Parts K, L and O
Early-stage design assist
Load paths, glass build-ups, achievable spans and fixing strategies tested against your concept while it is still changeable, rather than after tender.
Detailing the glass junctions
We develop the glass-to-glass joints, the concealed frames and the interfaces to structure, then issue the details for your package.
Calculations within scope
Calculations to BS EN 16612 and the relevant product standards, provided as part of our package rather than left to you.
CPD and specification
RIBA-appropriate CPD sessions for your practice, and specification clauses published on NBS Source so structural glass can be specified accurately.
A single-source package you can programme and price
Structural glass is a long-lead, high-risk item. We take it as one package — design, engineering, supply and installation — with one set of dates and one point of accountability.
- Technical pre-tender meetings
- Pre-tender cost planning
- Installation RAMS and access planning
- Defects and aftercare in one place
One subcontract, one responsibility
Design, engineering, procurement, glass handling, cranage and installation under a single order. No gap between the designer and the fitter.
Programme and lead times stated
Realistic approval, manufacture and installation durations at pre-tender stage, so glazing can be sequenced properly against the cladding and fit-out lines.
Competence and evidence
Accreditations, insurance and test evidence available up front, with product records prepared for the Building Safety Act golden thread.
Site logistics taken seriously
Access studies, cranage, permits, glass storage and protection planned with your site team before delivery — restricted London sites included.
London and the Home Counties
Design, engineering and installation across London and the Home Counties, from our base in Surbiton, with projects further afield by arrangement.
Whichever side of the table you are on, start with a conversation.
One short call is usually enough to establish whether structural glass is the right answer, and what it would involve. No obligation, and no sales sequence.
