Glass & Glazing near you in Malaysia

Custom-cut mirrors are priced per square metre plus polished edges, holes and fitting. Large wall mirrors need proper bonding or mechanical fixing to structure — a glazier job rather than adhesive strips. Bathroom mirrors should be moisture-backed to prevent edge blackening.

Almost every country requires safety glass (toughened or laminated) in doors, panels beside doors, low-level glazing, bathrooms and balustrades. Replacing broken glass in these spots with ordinary float glass is illegal and dangerous — a competent glazier will refuse to do it.

Frameless screens use 8-10 mm toughened glass with polished edges and specialist hardware, priced per panel plus installation. Semi-frameless and framed options run meaningfully cheaper. Accurate templating matters — out-of-square walls are why this is not a DIY product.

Glaziers price per pane by size, thickness and type: float glass is cheapest, toughened (tempered) safety glass costs roughly half again more and must be made to order, and laminated, obscured or low-E glass add further. Emergency board-up plus a return visit is the standard flow for breakages.

Yes — emergency board-up is a core glazier service: they secure the opening with boards or film, clear the broken glass, and return with the correct replacement pane. Expect a call-out premium at night and weekends, and ask your insurer first as glass cover often includes an approved emergency line.

Shallow scratches can sometimes be polished out of thick glass and small edge chips stabilized, but cracks always spread — a cracked pane needs replacement. For sealed double-glazed units, any crack means replacing the whole unit since the seal is compromised.

Toughened (tempered) glass is heat-treated to be several times stronger and crumbles into blunt granules when broken. Laminated glass sandwiches a plastic interlayer so it cracks but stays in place — better for security and overhead glazing. Codes dictate which is required where; laminated also blocks more noise and UV.

Standard panes run RM 150-450 installed; tempered panels RM 400-1,000. Framed shower screens land RM 800-2,000 and frameless enclosures RM 2,000-5,000.
