Emergency glazing repairs in the canton of Bern
The canton of Bern has very varied needs for emergency glazing. In Bern, the arcades of the old town house many shop windows, where a night-time breakage must be made safe before the shop opens. In Biel/Bienne, rental buildings and former watchmaking premises feature large glazed workshop surfaces. In the Oberland, around Thun and Interlaken, hotels and chalets exposed to storms and snowfall regularly see damaged windows or glass balustrades. In the Bernese Jura, towards St-Imier, harsh winters put insulating glass under heavy strain. In Bern's historic districts, a change of glass visible from the street should first be discussed with the municipality.
- For a shop window, ask for laminated safety glass: it stays in place on impact and offers better protection against break-ins.
- On a glass balcony balustrade, cordon off the area as soon as a crack appears and do not lean anything against it until it is replaced.

Frequently asked questions
What information can I safely give an emergency glazier in Bern?
Describe the affected window or door, the floor and whether glass is still held in the frame. Share photographs taken from a safe position and any known glazing details. Keep people away from the damaged area and leave temporary securing to the glazier.
What should I do around broken glazing?
Keep children, pets and other occupants away from the damaged area. Do not collect glass held in a frame or attempt to cover a high or unstable opening. Take photographs only from a safe position; tell the glazier if secure access is impossible.
What should I compare in emergency glazier quotes?
Distinguish temporary securing from the final replacement pane. Compare glass type, frame work, disposal and sealing, and ask how measurements will be confirmed. A quote should explain what is provisional until the opening and glazing specification have been inspected.
How should I prepare for the emergency glazier visit or work?
Provide safe access information, including the floor and whether the damaged pane faces a street or shared area. Keep any glass identification or prior invoice available. Agree with the property manager who can authorise temporary protection and final replacement.
