Glass Polishing for Construction
The most common causes of scratch damage on a construction site or commercial development are careless cleaning, render removal or careless decorating. These types of scratch damage can be repaired quickly, safely and for much less than the cost of replacement.
But in today's construction industry, it's not just about the repairing of scratched glass. It is also about how you operate. With Health and Safety, litigation and culpability playing an ever increasing role in construction today, a construction site or project manager needs to ensure that the trades they employ are genuine professionals.
By choosing a qualified glass polisher, recognized by The Guild of Glass Polishers, to work on your project, you are assured that your glass polishers have been assessed and verified to not only have the required skill level for the task in hand but that are they qualified to operate in a safe, professional manner on your project.
