Questions to Ask Your Tradie
• Do you supply toughened/tempered and edge-polished glass as standard
• Can you work to my measurements or will you measure on site before ordering
• Are removal and disposal of existing glass included in the quote
• What protection do you use for furniture and flooring during work
• How long between measuring and installation for bespoke glass
• Do you carry public liability insurance and can you provide references for similar jobs
How to Avoid Surprises
• clear a route to the table and check door and stair widths for large panels
• reserve nearby parking for the fitter's van where possible
• secure pets and small children away from the work area
• tell the tradie about any loose joints or fragile finishes on the table
• check lead times for bespoke glass before booking an installation date
