Gutted. Smashed a window

[worldwidewebs]

Totally gutted. Through sheer stupidity I've managed to smash one of our Internorm triple glazed panels - I'm trying to numb the pain with alcohol but it's not having much effect.

 

Please someone, tell me it's an easy fix and I shouldn't fret about it. The OH is saying not to worry but I can't help but...

There is nothing that can't be fixed...

It'll be better tomorrow...enjoy the booze in the meantime

I'm sure it's just a case of slotting in new glass from your local manufacturers ???

I wish it was that easy ?

 

I feel sad...

My concern is from OUR local supplier it would be vastly inferior glass units.

You’ll be fine, Iv broken loads of glass, it’s relatively cheap to replace just be careful removing the beads

The Internorm glazed panels are fully glued in. I don't think it'll be easy, quick or cheap unfortunately. And I can see the lead time being 'weeks'

Fully glued in or just security tape? I can’t imagine the surround it with glue, security tape is a pain but you can get it off once the glass is broken.

If you have a hole and feel a bit open, go and buy a sheet of glass bigger than the hole and silicone it on while you wait for another. 

 

 

 

I ruined a brand  new window with brick acid, i was washing the new concrete floor to provide a good key and splashed it up the glass,

never noticed for a couple of weeks.

Quite impressed you smashed a triple glazed unit!

 

We had a Gaulhofer glazed exterior door and it was delivered without frosted glass -  a new glazed unit was shipped out and replaced by the installer with no issues.

 

I'm sure Internorm can sort this - it must happen all the time in delivery, installation etc.

 

Just put Eurovision on - will erase anything from your mind after a few mins..

I'd just spent the day clearing long grass with the brush cutter and was just 'finishing off' by tidying a few bits near the house when it threw a stone out, straight at the glass. I should have swapped for the strimmer - I'm an idiot
