Glass Balustrades Didsbury

A clear specification for an existing building.

Replacing a balcony edge or introducing a mezzanine into an existing property starts with understanding what is already there. We review the fixing substrate, floor build-up and access route before developing the glass detail. For shared buildings, permissions and the responsibilities of the building owner should be established at the outset.

Three details worth considering.

• Share photographs of existing balcony edges and available structural information.
• Confirm freeholder or management-company permissions where the building is shared.
• Plan unloading and lifting where street access or the route through the property is restricted.

From first survey to installation.

We begin with the property and the intended use. Approximate dimensions and photographs help establish the initial scope; the supporting structure, glass specification and final fixing arrangement need to be coordinated before manufacture.

For architect-led or contractor-managed projects, send plans and sections alongside the construction programme. For an existing balcony or terrace, include photographs of the current edge, surface finish and access route.

What to include in your enquiry.

Tell us the postcode in Didsbury, the approximate length of glass, the type of project and whether you are at concept, planning, tender or construction stage. An intended timescale and any access restrictions help us understand what happens next.
