Glazier Hamlyn Heights – Emergency Glass Repairs & Replacement

The team at Barwon Glass were called out to a property in Hamlyn Heights just before Christmas after a toughened glass window shattered when struck by a stone from whipper snipping.

Toughened glass can fail suddenly on impact, breaking into small fragments and leaving the property exposed. With security and safety a concern, the window required urgent attention.

Before & After – Toughened Glass Window Replacement

Before

The toughened glass panel shattered after being struck by a stone during whipper snipping, leaving the window unsafe and unsecured.

After

The window was replaced the same day with laminated safety glass, restoring security and reducing the risk of future breakage.

Why Laminated Safety Glass Was Installed

Instead of reinstalling toughened glass, the replacement panel was upgraded to laminated safety glass. Laminated glass is designed to stay bonded together if impacted, offering greater protection for occupants and the property.

• ✔️ Holds together if broken
• ✔️ Improved safety compared to toughened glass
• ✔️ Better security for ground-level windows
• ✔️ Ideal for homes with gardening and lawn maintenance nearby
