A sticking door or broken window doesn't always need replacing

A cracked window, damaged shop front or faulty security door can happen to any property. Left unattended, it can leave your home or business exposed to the weather and unwanted access.

Clarity Glass repairs and replaces damaged glass and aluminium across Dunedin and the wider Otago region, with next-day attendance arranged where workload and materials allow.

Older buildings settle and shift over the years, so full replacement is not always the answer. Doors or windows that have slipped can often be realigned on site to restore function and security without replacing more than necessary.

Residential glass repairs and selected commercial work


Clarity Glass handles residential glass repairs alongside selected commercial jobs such as shop fronts, broken frameless doors, shower doors and security doors. A shattered shower screen, chipped splashback or broken window is measured and replaced with glass made to suit the original.

The repairs most people ask about are shower glass replacement, door glass replacement and window repair, using safety glass where required. As a small local business covering Dunedin, Mosgiel, Oamaru, Roxburgh and surrounding Otago areas, your job is handled by people who know the local housing stock and conditions.

Damaged shower glass is often replaced alongside new
frameless glass showers.

Realistic timeframes on broken window repair

Emergency and after-hours call-outs were trialled early on but proved unworkable. Safety glass usually cannot be sourced on the spot, so same-night work is not realistic. Being upfront about timing matters more than promising something undeliverable.

If your window or door breaks overnight, temporarily patch the area. Your repair is then booked for the following day where workload allows. Same-day work is sometimes possible, depending on the schedule.

This keeps your property secure while correct materials are sourced. Insurance companies are familiar territory, so you handle the paperwork and bring Clarity Glass in for the repair.

Aluminium door adjustment that restores function


A good part of repair work is adjustment rather than full replacement. When a door slips, moves or sticks, building settlement is often the cause rather than a faulty door.

Before recommending costly replacement, our options include realigning your slipped or sticking aluminium door, swapping out worn or damaged components, or replacing your glass while matching existing aluminium and frame colours where possible.

This keeps your home or premises consistent and avoids unnecessary spending. On Taieri's main street, heavy roadworks caused several buildings to settle, and a number of shop front doors needed adjusting. We also handle window and ranch slider glass replacement where the glass is broken.

retrofit double glazing for window upgrades.

Replacement glass and Clearshield shower treatment

When replacement is the right call, custom glass is measured to suit the existing opening and matched to the original specification where possible. Licensed Clearshield treatment can also be applied to your shower glass to reduce soap scum, standing water and limescale etching.

In a shower, it lasts around three years before reapplication.

If adjusting or refitting existing glass is more cost-effective, that is discussed before replacement is recommended. Taylor has worked mainly in frameless glass throughout his career, and Clarity Glass has operated locally since 2019.

custom mirrors.

A visit to measure up is usually arranged within a day or two where scheduling allows. Toughened or specialty glass may take a few extra days to source, cut and prepare before installation.

A temporary board-up can be arranged if your window is badly broken. This helps keep your property safer and more weathertight while the opening is measured and the correct glass is ordered.

Misting between the panes usually means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing. The existing glazing is measured, a matching unit is ordered then fitted into the frame.

Ranch slider glass replacement is handled where the glass itself is broken. The panel is measured, toughened safety glass is sourced to match the original specification and refitted into the existing frame.

Door glass replacement uses safety glass where required for doors and low-level glazing. Toughened glass is stronger than ordinary glass and breaks into small pieces rather than sharp shards.
