About an hour from our Ballarat East shopfront, and we have serviced the district for years

Ararat sits about an hour from our Ballarat shopfront, and we have been looking after homes in the district for years. Whether it is a window that has cracked overnight, a tired shower screen, or a cold, old home you want to warm up for winter, you get the same team and the same standard of work we bring to every job closer to home.

Glazing services we offer in Ararat

We offer the same broad range of services we bring to Ballarat, under one trusted local roof.

Retrofit double glazing for an older Ararat home

Ararat has no shortage of solid old homes, and the goldfields-era and mid-century houses around the district were mostly built with single-glazed timber windows that let the heat out and the cold in.

Retrofitting is how you fix that without changing the look of the place. We take out the single pane and fit a sealed, argon-filled unit into the frame you already have, so the window still looks right from the street but the room holds its warmth.

Out this way the winters are colder and more exposed than in town, so the difference in draughts, condensation and heating bills tends to be one you notice quickly. Around 90% of homes suit it, it usually comes in at a fraction of the patented-system price, and we will tell you honestly when we measure if yours is one of the few that does not.

Glass repair and replacement in Ararat

An hour from the shop does not mean a long wait for glass. Because we cut to size and hold large sheets of stock back in Ballarat, we can usually measure, cut and bring the right glass out to Ararat on a single run, rather than several trips each way.

We replace glass in timber, aluminium and steel-framed windows, match older or obscure glass where a period home calls for it, and handle insurance and rental turnovers the same as we would in town. If a window has just broken, our after-hours line will talk you through making it safe tonight. Tell us about the job over the phone and we can often give you an estimate before we head out.

“Robsons have install double glazing to sash windows in our Victorian weatherboard house. It has made a big difference to heating and noise reduction. Robsons have done a fantastic job.”

“I’d happily recommend W.J Robson & Sons to anyone looking to fix broken window panes. They got back to me quickly, adaptable to suit my work hours and did a professional job at our home.”

“I had my cracked leadlight panels replaced (thank you Isaac!) … I just recently double glazed my windows, everything was achievable and they were very reasonably priced … honest, reliable and efficient. I won’t use any other glazier company.”

Common questions about our Ararat glazing services

Do you come out to Ararat?

Yes. Ararat is well within our service area, about an hour from the shop, and we have looked after the district for years.

Is there a call-out fee?

We will give you an estimate idea over the phone, and there is no call-out fee to come out and measure. Emergency after-hours call-outs carry a separate fee, and we will tell you what it is on the phone first.

Can you do double glazing in Ararat without replacing my windows?

Yes. We retrofit double glazing into most existing timber and aluminium frames, so you keep your windows and just get the benefit of the extra glazing. It is a good fit for the older, colder homes common around the district.

How quickly can you get glass out to Ararat?

Because we cut to size and hold stock in Ballarat, we can usually measure, cut and bring the right glass out on a single run. For a break that has just happened, the after-hours line will talk you through making it safe tonight.
