Trusted partner to some of the UK's largest brands

25 years of Expertise in Glazing Inspections

Our specialist glazing inspections are conducted throughout the UK by our technical team to enable our clients to accurately identify all defects and health and safety issues associated with their glazing systems. Each inspection is tailored to meet the exact requirements of our clients. We typically cover all or part of a building’s envelope, including curtain walling, glazed roofs, canopies, windows, skylights & rooflights and internal glazing such as balustrades and glazed screens.



Our GLRE surveying team can conduct a full survey of your glazing system regardless of the location, with our specially trained access teams all expert in operating a range of cradles, gantry systems, mobile platforms and rope access. Our inspections can include thorough water testing of the glazing system and can even be priced to include spot remedial repairs whilst the inspection is taking place.

Upon inspection completion, a photographic schedule of defects are included within a detailed report issued to our clients, highlighting defects with the glazing system and any health and safety concerns. A list of recommended remedial repairs to ensure a fully serviceable and compliant glazing system is provided upon completion, alongside a fully costed proposal.


Our glazing condition surveys are used by clients in a variety of applications to include; meeting annual health and safety audit requirements, assisting in the production of scope of works for tenders and to conduct general health checks as part of a good working practise.
