I’m currently on a job site dealing with a shattered tempered glass window on the ground floor. The glass is fully broken and glued in, so I’m carefully heating the adhesive and rubber to clear everything out. Once it’s cleaned up, I’ll order a replacement tempered glass—a large piece, at least a quarter-inch thick, to ensure durability. Typically, the new glass will take about a week to arrive. In the meantime, I’ll cover the opening with plywood to protect from rain and keep the interior safe. The original break likely happened from landscaping activity, but with the temporary cover, the area is secure until we install the new glass.
