24 Center offers 24-hour glass service for building services

Glass can be found in many different places at home. In addition to windows, it is used as a material for interior decoration. In the bathroom, for example, glass can be found in everything from sauna taps to shower screens and mirrors. Glass can also be used as a decorative material in other areas of the home, for example in stair rails and, of course, windows. Glass is an elegant choice of material when you want light and a sense of space, but it is also a delicate material that easily shows stains and dents.

24 Center can be contacted for urgent and non-urgent eyewear-related work and problems around the clock. Our services include installation, repair and glass replacement. You can also contact us when you're not quite sure how to deal with problems and challenges with your glass installations and windows.

 

Urgent work in the event of an accident

If the window breaks at night, you can still contact the 24 Center. Our customer service representatives are ready to help you 24 hours a day, every day. For example, thermal glasses are subjected to an emergency night-time inspection and measurement. The installation will also be carried out as soon as possible after the glass to be installed has been manufactured. Standard glass can also be repaired in one night visit, depending on the size and thickness of the glass.

24 Center's network of experts includes Helsingin Lasipaja Oy. Jari Leppikorpi, the company's Managing Director, says that 24 Center receives the most calls for emergency services and urgent work. These assignments include repairing burglary marks or glass damage caused by the hustle and bustle of everyday life. For example, children's ball games may have caused situations where a ball has escaped and caused damage, such as a window being broken.

 

Non-urgent technical glazing work

Urgent glass-related work includes the installation of windows and interior glass. If you're planning a bathroom renovation or considering installing mirrors in your company's changing or sports facilities, the 24 Center network can help. Through our network, we offer installation and repair services that can help you realize your plans.

Jari Leppikorpi of Helsinki Glassworks says that they can handle any glass job. These include: shower walls, sauna interior glass, mirror glazing, railing glass and picture frames. They also repair and replace car windscreens, even if they are not strictly related to building services. 

Helsingin Lasipaja uses the 24 Center Partner app, through which they receive orders from 24 Center. The application provides all the necessary information immediately, enabling them to respond quickly to orders. Customers don't have to wait long for installers and repairers to arrive on site.

 

When is it time to replace your windows?

"You don't have to replace windows in your home if they are not scratched or dented. Insulating glass should be replaced when it starts to turn grey. The season for insulating glass is spring, when sunlight increases and curtains start to be moved away from the windows. This is when it is easier to spot leaks in the insulation glass. Leaks occur over time when a hole is made in the moulding and air enters the vacuum, causing the window glass to turn grey," says Jari Leppikorpi of Lasipaja Oy.

Leaks cannot be prevented. At the moment, insulation glass is being replaced in houses built in the 1970s and 1980s," Leppikorpi adds. So if you live in a house built in the 70s or 80s, it's worth keeping an eye on the condition of your insulation windows and ordering maintenance if necessary. Heat escaping from insulated windows increases heating costs and reduces indoor air quality, which can affect both living comfort and health.

 

A checklist for glass damage: 

  • Safety first: Make sure that no one is injured when the glass breaks. Carefully remove broken pieces of glass and move them away from the damage area. If the glass breakage is the result of vandalism or a home invasion, follow the instructions given by the emergency services or police for cleaning up
  • In the event of an accident: contact your insurance company. Home insurance may cover a window that has been accidentally broken if the breakage is due to a sudden and unforeseeable cause. Report a crime if the glass is broken as a result of vandalism or breakage. If the damage occurred in a rented property, you should also contact the landlord.
  • Immediate repair if necessary: cover the window temporarily, for example with a tarpaulin or other temporary material, to prevent snow, rain or moisture from entering and avoid further damage.
  • Take advantage of the household allowance: don't forget to take advantage of the household allowance for renovation and commissioned installation work. 
  • If necessary, ask for advice: If you are not sure what to do, contact the 24 Center. We will provide the necessary help and guidance.
