Hi,

Do somebody know a handyman who is trustable and able to replace a broken glass in an aluminium sliding patio door?
(Malta, Swieqi area)

Thanks,

Hi Andras
        Its a big job for a handyman, I would suggest you contact a local firm that makes / fits aluminium sliding doors for a quote. The frames for sliding doors are easily distorted and you could end up damaging the whole door if not done professionally.

If everyone ever had to face the same problem:

It was 75 EUR and he replaced the glass next day, and even easier to close the door now.

Hi everyone,

I post an answer in here, because I am also looking for somebody to replace a glass door. But it is just a small glass door of a closet.

I made many calls, but somehow people are not too excited about the opportunity to make some money.  That is why I hope that somebody in here knows somebody, who is willing to work and exchange a broken glass door.

Please let me know, if you have any idea, whom to contact.

Thanks.

Can you not remove the door and take it to  a local glazier ?

Where about are you?

Hi,

Well it is broken and I cannot really carry it anywhere, because for that purpose it is too big then.
I live in Saint Pauls bay. Do you know anybody here?

Thanks
