GLAZIERS · CANTERBURY

Glaziers in Canterbury

Canterbury is Christchurch plus a ring of fast-growing satellite towns and a lot of flat farmland beyond them, and a Rolleston or Rangiora business will often price a city job differently. Say where you are and NovaPay asks businesses covering it.

WHAT IS DIFFERENT HERE

Hiring glaziers in Canterbury

The rebuild left Christchurch with an unusually young housing stock and an unusually experienced set of trades, and the remaining older stock brings foundation, levelling and insurance-related work with it. Rolleston, Lincoln and Rangiora are still building outward. Say whether it is a rebuild-era house or a pre-quake one.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Do Christchurch businesses cover Rolleston, Rangiora and Timaru?
The satellite towns yes, routinely — they are twenty to thirty minutes out. Timaru and Ashburton are their own markets with their own trades, and NovaPay asks there first when the job is there.
My window is broken now. What happens first?
Making it safe. Most glaziers will board or temporarily secure the opening the same day and return with the cut glass once it is measured and ordered, since panes are rarely stock items.
Why has my double glazing gone foggy?
The seal on the unit has failed and moisture is inside. Cleaning will not fix it; the sealed unit itself is replaced, and usually only that unit rather than the whole window.
Can I claim it on insurance?
Often yes, and glaziers deal with insurers constantly. Say it is a claim in your request so the quote comes back in a form your insurer will accept.
Can double glazing be retrofitted?
Into many existing frames, yes, which is far cheaper than replacing joinery. Whether it suits depends on the frames you have, so it needs a look rather than a phone answer.
