Glass & Glazing in Selayang Baru Utara

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.

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.

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.

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.

Commonly yes — glass breakage is standard in most contents/buildings policies, sometimes with an excess that makes small panes not worth claiming. For shopfronts, glass cover is usually a specific commercial policy item. Photograph the damage and keep the glazier's invoice either way.

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.
