What can you expect in Broadstairs?
We aim to fit the survey around your opening hours in Broadstairs, and we also cover Ramsgate and Margate. You get the same written quotation wherever the shop is.
What makes the difference?
Should the stallriser stay?
A stallriser protects the bottom of the glass from kicks, trolleys and cleaning water. On older streets it is also part of the look.
What affects the price most?
Width, the number of doors, glass type and any strip-out. A second door or a laminated upgrade moves the figure more than the colour does.
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
How much will it cost?
