Installation
The installation of your glass project is the final stage of what is often many months of work, discussions and planning.
Furthermore, the glass is often almost the final element of a building project: we cannot fit the glass until the floors are finished, the walls are in place or the stairs are installed in readiness for the balustrade.
All the preliminary work culminates in the installation. With the comprehensive Ion Glass service you can be confident that our Project Management and Procurement Teams will have been working towards and efficient and effective install process.
