Wanting to get someone out to put safety film on windows so that the normal float glass conforms to current glazing standards. Any one know how much $ per sq m? or per window? I've got colonial windows throughout so there are 60 little panels which I think is going to cost me a fortune...

Thanks for your responses Orbitor and Wayfarer I have a shower base. Really wanted a walk in / level entry shower but in the end decided that the risk was too great. It's reassuring to know that properly applied silicone will be alright. The installer said he was a subcontractor, but...

lawyers or glazier advice? On second thoughts, maybe I should just insist on the refund because it is not doing what it is supposed to do (stay on the wall). As I understand it, the consumer laws regarding returns states that I am entitled to refund if it is my choice, when a product is not...
