Glass Window Replacementby Doxa Glass Merchants

Window repairs in Germiston

Germiston is built around Germiston Lake, with older homes in suburbs such as Primrose, Lambton and Delville, and the factories and shops of Wadeville nearby. That gives us two kinds of work here: reglazing older steel windows in homes, and getting business premises secure and trading again after a break. Call-outs are free, and we are open 7 days a week.

Glass that suits life in Germiston

Older homes with steel windows

Steel windows are strong, but the putty that holds their glass does not last forever. Putty glazing replaces it along with any broken glass, bedding the new pane in properly and sealing it with a neat bevel, so the old frames can keep going.

Wadeville factories and shops

For businesses, a broken window is a security gap as well as a repair. Our shopfront glass replacement service covers shop windows, glass doors and office glazing. If the glass is not something we carry, we cover the opening so the premises can be locked, and we source the right pane. Laminated glass comes in Normal Strength, High Penetration Resistant and High Impact variations, which is worth knowing for premises that have been targeted before.

Security for homes as well

Business premises are not the only ones that benefit from laminated glass. For a house in Castleview or Gerdview, laminated glass in the most exposed windows and doors holds together when it is struck, which makes getting in much slower and noisier. It is carried on our vans in 6.38mm, and it fits existing steel, aluminium and wooden frames.

Burglar bars and trellis gates

If burglar bars need to come off before we can reach a broken pane, we can supply a welder or trellis specialist to remove them and refit them afterwards.

Glass for older frames around the lake

Not every older window is steel. Where a home has timber frames, the glass is held with beading rather than putty, and we ease it out and refit it with care. See wooden window glass replacement for how we go about it.

How to send us photos

  1. 1. A close-up of the damage

    Get near enough that we can see the crack, the break and the edge of the frame.

  2. 2. The whole window or door

    Step back and take one of the full opening, so we can see its size and frame type.
