If you have Shattered, Broken or Damaged your Glass Table Top or Glass Table Cover, we are here to help. How to fix a broken glass table?

Unfortunate as it is, you have two or three options:

  1. Buy a new table.
  2. Replace the damaged glass.
  3. Don’t do anything.

Whether it is an a table based inside or outside, it may more efficient to replace the whole table, to efficiently assess this try our Table Top Glass calculator, as you might just find it more cost effective to replace the broken glass.

This is because our Bespoke Toughened Glass is much cheaper than the High Street Merchant and we can either offer a UK wide delivery to your door, or the glass can be collected from our base in Chippenham, Wiltshire.

What thickness of glass do I need for my replacement table glass? 

This will be different for everyone, which is why all our glass is made bespoke for each and every customer. The best thing to do is check the existing glass that needs replacing (if possible), you’re more than welcome to email us a photo so we can help advise further.

If the glass is being used to cover an existing surface the thickness of the glass can be less than that of a stand alone glass table top. If the glass is fully supported (sitting flush on the furniture), and dependent on the amount of use the table cover will get and crucially the size, in most instances 4mm and 6mm thicknesses of glass can be suitable. For glass dining table covers  6mm and above is mostly purchased. As a rule of thumb if the table is less than 1000mm square you can consider using 4mm for a replacement table cover, above that size 6mm, 8mm and even 10mm can be considered. Please contact us if you would like further advice.

The glass I need to replace was either Tinted or Solid Colour, what are my options for replacing?

Tinted Glass (Bronze and Grey) is either 6mm or 10mm and solid colour (back painted) options can be priced, although honestly if you want a solid colour, we recommend painting the glass yourself, as it’s easy to do and the result will be worth the little effort involved.

What edges do I need on my glass table replacement?

Polished edges are what you’d expect to see and have on your glass table. The glass may have had a bevelled edge also. The following images highlight a polished edge and a bevelled edge respectively.

Do I need rounded corners, dubbed corners, just or 90deg corners on my replacement table glass?

Typically a glass table will have completely square 90deg corners.  We are able to soften the corners, this is known as a dubbed corner (which is a 1/2mm blunting of the corner itself), or add to a small round curve, known as a radius corner, which are typically between 5mm and 25mm. Not sure what radius corner your table has? Check out our measuring guide here

The glass I need to replace was an unusual shape, what can I do?

In some cases we may require a template of your glass, this is most common if the shape is unusual. However the cost can be expensive, so we advise sending an image over via email, when can then advise on whether it can be achieved in a cost effective manner. If the table glass replacement is for an circular table, then we just need the diameter. If it is either an ellipse or a race track oval, please take a look at our measuring guide here

What happens once I’ve placed my Table Glass order?

If having a Table Glass Delivery;

A date for delivery can ONLY be provided once the glass is ready and out of production, this timescale is variable. On average 10 working days from production commencing is approx, however the type of glass and the location for delivery do extend this approximate timescale.

We are NOT able to provide a definitive time of arrival prior to the date of delivery. The driver will contact you on the day of delivery, approx 1 hour before arrival. We will do what we can to keep you updated. Deliveries are made on weekdays only.

Please be aware that the driver will need to meet yourself or a representative to assist in unloading of the glass. We deliver to curb side, meaning that we don’t take glass upstairs, lifts etc.

The glass arrives NAKED this is typical in the glass industry. This enables us to keep costs down, and avoid contributing to environmental waste. Equally it enables you to check the glass thoroughly before signing that you are happy to accept the glass in the state it arrived.

Once signed for you have agreed to accept the glass in the condition it has arrived, and we can not take responsibility after that point.

If wanting to Collect your Table Glass;

If you are collecting your glass from us in Chippenham, we will email to confirm once it is ready.

You will need to bring suitable materials for protecting the glass in transit.

It is your responsibility to check and sign for the glass before you leave.

Please be aware there are no guarantees/warranties provided for glass, as it is a breakable product.
