Transforming Local Homes with Stunning Glass Solutions

At Paddington Glazier, we combine traditional craftsmanship with modern design to elevate homes across our historic suburb. As the business owner, I have spent years walking through the unique architecture of our area, from the iconic workers' cottages on Latrobe Terrace to the sleek, contemporary apartments springing up near Milton.

We understand that a kitchen or laundry renovation is more than just a construction project; it is about adding value and personality to your sanctuary. Unlike generic glazing networks, we are a local, family-operated business living and working right here in the 4064 postcode.

When it comes to Glass Splashbacks Paddington, we are the local authority you can trust. My team and I take immense pride in delivering precision-measured, toughened glass solutions that perfectly fit the quirks and character of your home. Whether you are looking to brighten a dark kitchen in Rosalie or add a pop of colour to a renovation in Red Hill, we are the experts who arrive in our own trucks, handle our own tools, and guarantee our own work. We don't just install glass; we create seamless, hygienic, and stunning focal points that define the heart of your home.

Premium Glass Splashbacks Paddington: Our Product Range

At Paddington Glazier, we refuse to compromise on quality. All our splashbacks are manufactured using Australian Standard toughened safety glass, ensuring durability and heat resistance. We control the quality chain, ensuring that the glass installed in your home is free from defects and built to last.

Mirror Splashback

Our Mirror Splashbacks are a favourite for compact Paddington kitchens and apartments where natural light is at a premium. The reflective surface instantly creates an illusion of depth, making small spaces feel twice as large.

  • High-grade reflective mirror finish.

  • Increases perceived space and light.

  • Easy-clean, stain-resistant surface.

  • Safe for use behind cooktops (unlike standard mirrors).

Coloured Glass Splashback

For those wanting to make a bold statement or coordinate with specific cabinetry, our Coloured Glass Splashbacks are the ultimate choice. We offer an extensive range of finishes matched to major paint brands.

  • Unlimited colour choice (Dulux/Taubmans).

  • Non-porous hygienic surface prevents bacteria.

  • Fully heat resistant for gas/induction.

  • Colour stability guaranteed.

  • Smooth wipe-clean surface.

  • Custom painted to match any paint brand.

  • Designed for heavy-duty environments.

Laundry Splashbacks

The laundry is often the wettest zone in the house, requiring superior protection against moisture. Our Laundry Splashbacks are engineered to be durable for these high-utility zones.

  • Designed for wet and utility zones.

  • Impervious to water damage.

  • Resists detergent stains and moisture.

  • Turns utility rooms into stylish features.

  • The Problem

Why Choose Custom Glass Over Traditional Tiles?

Many homeowners in Paddington face the same frustrating issue with traditional tiling: grout lines. Over time, grout absorbs grease, discolours, and becomes a breeding ground for mould, especially in high-humidity areas like kitchens and laundries. Scrubbing grout is a chore that no one enjoys.

Furthermore, in the older timber homes common in our area, wall movement can cause tiles to crack or pop. Attempting to install glass without professional precision leads to dangerous stress points.

  • Our Solution

Grout-Free Hygiene

Our high-quality glass splashbacks eliminate these headaches entirely. By providing a smooth, continuous surface with no grout lines, we offer a solution that is not only visually superior but infinitely more hygienic and easier to clean.

We use laser-measuring technology to ensure a perfect fit, even on the slightly uneven walls typical of Queenslanders. We also handle the critical safety aspect of heat resistance behind gas cooktops, ensuring your installation is compliant and safe. Don't risk a DIY disaster; let our experienced local team handle your installation from start to finish.

Our Professional Measurement and Installation Process

From the moment you call us, you are dealing directly with the experts who will handle your job.

1

Consultation

We bring colour samples and glass types to your property so you can see them under your specific lighting conditions before deciding.

2

Templating

In Paddington, where walls are rarely square, we use precision laser levels to map every millimetre of the area for cutouts.

3

Fabrication

The glass is cut, polished, toughened, and painted in your specified colour at our workshop to ensure absolute quality control.

4

Installation

Our team returns to install the glass using high-grade, neutral-cure silicone that prevents bleed-through on the paint finish.

Strict Adherence to AS1288 Standards

Safety is not an option; it is a requirement. We strictly adhere to AS1288 (Glass in Buildings) standards for every installation.

This is particularly critical in kitchens involving gas cooktops. Australian Standards mandate a specific clearance between the gas burner and the glass surface to prevent thermal breakage or fire hazards. We assess your appliance setup during the measure to ensure total compliance.

When we finish the job, we stand by our work, providing you with the peace of mind that comes from using fully licensed and insured tradespeople who prioritise the safety of your family and your home.

  • AS1288 Compliant

  • Fire-Resistant Rated

  • QBCC Licensed

  • Public Liability Insured

Building Considerations in Paddington and Red Hill

Paddington is not just a service area to us; it is our backyard. We understand the specific challenges and beauty of building in this area. We know that installing a splashback in a renovated worker's cottage on a steep block in Red Hill requires a different approach than fitting a mirror in a modern apartment complex in Milton.

We appreciate the community spirit here, and we strive to contribute to it by being the reliable local experts you can turn to. We understand the local council regulations regarding pool fencing and balustrades in this specific terrain, ensuring your project is not only beautiful but also fully compliant with local laws.

Easy Care and Maintenance for Long-Lasting Shine

One of the main reasons our clients love glass is the low maintenance required. To keep your splashback looking brand new, simply use a quality glass cleaner and a soft microfibre cloth. This will remove cooking grease and fingerprints without leaving streaks.

  • Avoid Steel Wool

    Avoid using abrasive scourers or steel wool, as these can scratch the surface over time.

  • Grease Spots

    For stubborn grease spots, warm soapy water is highly effective before finishing with a glass cleaner.

If you have chosen a mirror finish, ensure the edges are kept relatively dry to maintain the integrity of the backing, although our sealing process offers excellent protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I put glass behind a gas cooktop?

Yes, provided it is toughened glass and installed with the correct clearance as per Australian Standards.

What is Starphire glass?

Starphire is low-iron glass.

It removes the natural green tint of glass, ensuring your chosen paint colour shows through truly (essential for white).

Can you cut the glass after it is toughened?

No.

Toughened glass will shatter if cut.

All measurements must be exact before processing.

How do I choose a colour?

You can choose any colour from a paint chart (e.g., Dulux).

We recommend getting a sample pot and painting a board to test in your kitchen's light.

Is it easy to keep clean?

Extremely.

Just use standard glass cleaner and a cloth.
