Measurement
It is necessary to determine the amount and cost of the work needed by first measuring the dimensions of the damaged window or windows. When a repair company is called, they first secure the area and then take these measurements to determine the type and quantity as well as the quality of the materials needed to perform the job.
Material
To avoid similar incidents in the future, the newly installed glass can be made of a more durable material than what was used in the previous windows. One such material is tempered glass which is four times stronger at resisting straight on impact than standard plate glass, but will fall into many smaller pieces if broken which leaves the opening unsecured.
Temporary Panels
