Glazing Apprenticeship

Glaziers are the architects of light, transforming raw sheets of glass into gleaming windows, doors, and architectural marvels. They bring natural light into buildings, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality. Their work encompasses a variety of tasks:

  • Cutting and installing glass of various sizes and thicknesses, ensuring precision and safety.
  • Assembling and installing window and door frames, ensuring watertight seals and proper operation.
  • Creating intricate stained glass panels or other decorative features, often requiring artistry and meticulous attention to detail.
  • Maintaining and repairing existing glass structures, diagnosing problems and finding solutions.

Glaziers work with a diverse range of materials, from traditional glass to high-tech panels with special properties. They may specialize in residential, commercial, or even specialized areas like historical restoration.

Embrace this hands-on artistry:

  • Master the art of glasswork: Learn the language of cutters, sealants, and glazing techniques, wielding them with precision to install, repair, and maintain diverse glass structures.
  • From blueprint to breathtaking views: Translate designs into reality, meticulously crafting glass features that combine functionality with stunning aesthetics, becoming a window to beauty in every building.
  • No two projects the same: From intricate stained glass panels to towering glass facades, every project presents unique challenges and opportunities to expand your expertise and explore the diverse applications of glass.

Remember, with apprenticeships and traineeships you start earning a wage from day 1!
