GlassNow glaziers have completed police checks.

September 6, 2016/in Emergency Glass, Glass /by GlassNow

Australia: National Police Check

Glass Now glaziers work in all sorts of locations across SE Queensland and Northern NSW. We supply our services to all domestic home environments and a wide variety of commercial businesses such as schools, hospitals, public housing, aged care, etc. This puts our glazing team in regular contact with vulnerable and young people.

Recently some of our clients have asked us for police checks to be completed as part of their compliance obligations. These requests are a reflection on the increasing demands of compliance obligations for most small business within Australia. Glass Now was happy to comply with the requests of our customers and all staff has now completed the required process.

Our glazing team is in contact with a wide range of domestic and commercial environments. As such the range of people is as diverse, with young and old, sick and healthy and everything in between. Our glaziers completed the national police check because we are serious about providing the highest levels of service and professionalism. We take our business seriously as such we also take our customer expectations the same way. Having completed the police checks gives Glass Now confidence that we are on a path of continuous improvement.

Impacts of Glazing on Passive Cooling your home

May 12, 2016/in Design, Emergency Glass, Energy Efficiency, Glass, Home Improvement /by GlassNow

Passive heating comes from only one source the sun or solar radiation. Passive cooling comes from many sources; air movement, outside breeze, evaporation, earth coupling and reflection radiation.

The Gold Coast and Brisbane are considered a warm or temperate climate which then requires both the heating and cooling design requirements for your residential or business dwellings.

For example at my home in Burleigh Heads, we do not have air conditioning, from November to May we rely on the sea breeze or fans, to cool the house. This is passive cooling using free or low energy input solutions to cool your home.

The glazing design within a building will significantly impact the heating and cooling requirements. Apparently close to 40% of a buildings heat energy can be lost via the glass. More importantly, it is also reported that up to 85% of heat in a building will be gained via the glass. When renovating or building a new dwelling, window design will have a direct impact on the dwellings thermal performance (your comfort) and ongoing energy costs. Poorly designed glazing works as a passive heat load, not something you want.

In SE Queensland, it is important then to get the passive cooling of your building right and minimise the passive heat load.

Using cross ventilation, shade, films or tinting on window glazing can all help to prevent solar radiation or passive heat load. Additional structural passive cooling options may include lighter colours to reflect heat, thicker insulation and frame styles.

There is a huge range of glass windows styles and these will affect the impact on passive cooling.

For example window opening angles impact on how much cross ventilation can be achieved. The best windows for cross ventilation are louvres, hinged or pivoting windows as they open to at least 90°. Less effective window types for passive cooling are awning, hopper or casement windows, as these have short winders, providing smaller openings and less cross ventilation.

Consider installing new louvre gallery’s to allow breezes to pass through the building. Use of obscured glass will also help to maintain privacy and security. For passive cooling consider louvre placement, above doors or in internal walls to improve cross ventilation.

Free glass repair – do you qualify?

April 5, 2016/in Emergency Glass, Glass, Tips /by GlassNow

Let’s see how this might work for you.

Body Corporate businesses work on behalf of building owners and are traditionally bought and sold like any other business. Body Corporate Managers (BCM) are then engaged in a partnership with the owners and a Strata Management firm who provide administrative and secretarial services. The BCM provides a service, they should help with the day to day management of the physical property and its residents.

The BCM may even live in the building alongside the residents. On the Gold Coast and in Brisbane this is common practice and the BCM can even act as the leasing agent for the building. As a resident within a Body Corporate Structure, you will deal with the body corporate manager or a real estate agent, sometimes both.

Physical property is usually defined as the common areas such as halls, pools, gardens and typically all the exterior of the building, such as the roof, windows and doors. If you are an owner, renting or even on a short stay in a holiday unit you are responsible for the damage inside the unit. Break a mirror in the bathroom, you are going to have to pay for it.

The BCM acting on behalf of the owners is usually responsible for doing or organising the repair and maintenance of common property at the building. So here we go – do you qualify for free glass repair on the Gold Coast and Brisbane Australia. Well, Do YOU!!

First – you need to be a tenant in a building that has a body corporate structure?
Second – the glass repair (typically a glass door or a window) must be on the external wall or outside of the dwelling?

If you answer “YES” to both of the questions you should qualify and your body corporate should be picking up the bill, not you =

I would like to thank all the staff who I spoke with to repair fixed glass panel in our sliding door. The price for repair was competitive and staff were very professional and very friendly. From the initial contact through the various contacts to arrange payment and the glacier who did the repair the repair was completed to our total satisfaction. I would highly recommend this Glass Now.

My bathroom shower screen door had some how moved (i thought) and was not closing properly. After having Michael on the job to maybe replace with a smaller door, we established the ensuite door was the right size so we agreed to swap the ensuite door for the main bathroom door and bingo! The result was perfect! Saved me a lot of dollars. Thank you Glass Now :-)

Got two quotes for broken pane in sliding door. First quote was $660, but after I sent a photo, was revised to $880 with a delay of two weeks before the work could be done. Glass Now Gold Coast quoted $345 and could have someone on site in about 2 hours. Michael arrived in less than 2 hours. He was very pleasant and professional and completed the job with no fuss. Thank you Michael, Grant and Doug. Highly recommend this business for your glass repair work.

Thank you to Grant and the whole team at Glass Now who assisted in replacing a retail glass door at our cafe after it was broken by an intruder. The service provided by Glass Now was friendly, professional and extremely fast. Grant was a pleasure to deal with and gave accurate time frames. Given how the glass was broken it was refreshing to not have to deal with any hassles. We did not have to worry about anything because they had it all under control. It was a fantastic experience and we would gladly use them again.
