The Risk

Why Custom Glass Protection Is Essential

Many homeowners initially try to rely on tablecloths or coasters to protect their surfaces, but these often hide the natural beauty of timber or stone and do not provide permanent protection against impact or heavy spills.

A common issue we see across Brisbane homes is damage to expensive furniture caused by heat transfer from serving dishes or permanent watermarks from condensation.

Standard store-bought glass tops are rarely the answer. They come in fixed sizes that leave unsightly gaps or overhangs that can be dangerous. Non-safety glass poses a significant risk; if it breaks, it shatters into dangerous shards.

Our Solution

Tailored Protection

Our solution is tailored specifically to your needs. We utilise toughened safety glass which is up to five times stronger than standard float glass.

If you have a table with unique curves, irregular corners, or specific cable cutouts for office desks, our team creates a physical template to ensure the glass mimics the exact shape of your furniture.

We solve the problem of wear and tear by installing a barrier that is heat resistant, easy to clean, and virtually invisible, ensuring your furniture looks brand new for decades.

Our Measure, Cut, and Install Process

Our process is designed to be seamless and stress-free, ensuring you get the perfect fit every time.

On-Site Consultation and Measurement

We do not guess. We send one of our qualified glaziers to your property in New Farm or surrounding suburbs to measure your furniture exactly. For complex shapes—like antique desks or oval dining tables—we create a physical template on-site to ensure a 100% accurate cut. We discuss edge work options, such as flat polish or bevelled edges, to match your decor.

Local

Fabrication

Once measured, your glass is cut and processed in our local facility. We treat the glass to ensure it meets safety standards and polish the edges to a crystal-clear finish. We inspect every piece for imperfections before it leaves our workshop.

White-Glove

Installation

We arrive in our own branded vehicles to deliver and place the glass. We clean the surface of your furniture, place non-slip silicone bumpons if required to allow airflow and prevent sliding, and carefully lower the glass into position. We do not leave until you are satisfied with the fit.

AS1288 Standards and Safety Compliance

Safety is non-negotiable in our trade.

All glass tabletops supplied by New Farm Glazier strictly adhere to AS1288 Australian Standards.

For tabletops, this usually means utilizing Toughened Safety Glass, which is four to five times stronger than standard annealed glass.

If it were to break, it crumbles into small, harmless granules rather than dangerous jagged shards.

We provide a Certificate of Compliance upon request for major installations.

When we enter your home, we ensure that every edge is polished and safe, particularly if you have young children or pets running around the house.

Glazing Considerations for New Farm, Teneriffe and Newstead

New Farm and its neighbours, Teneriffe and Newstead, have a unique architectural blend that influences how we treat glass. We often see a lot of intense Queensland sunlight entering through the large windows of modern riverfront apartments. This UV exposure can fade timber furniture rapidly. A glass top acts as a barrier, helping to preserve the varnish and stain of your tables against sun damage.

Furthermore, the humidity in Brisbane can cause timber to expand and contract slightly throughout the year. Our glass cutting process accounts for these slight environmental shifts to ensure the glass fits perfectly without overhang or stress.

Care Instructions for Long-Lasting Shine

Keeping your glass tabletop pristine is simple with the right approach. We recommend using a high-quality, streak-free glass cleaner and a lint-free microfibre cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals, as these can dull the polish over time.

Proactive Care
If you notice any chips on the edges over the years, call us immediately—compromised edges can weaken the structural integrity of the glass.

For toughened glass, while it is heat resistant, we still recommend using coasters and placemats for extremely hot cookware to prevent thermal shock, although rare. Airflow is also key for timber furniture health.
