Modern architecture in Kenya increasingly relies on aluminium and glass installations to create aesthetically pleasing, functional, and energy-efficient spaces. From sleek office buildings along Waiyaki Way to contemporary residential homes in Karen and Runda, aluminium windows, doors, partitions, and glass facades have become defining features of urban development. However, these sophisticated installations require specialized maintenance and repair services to maintain their appearance, functionality, and security. Bestcare Facilities Management has established itself as Nairobi’s premier provider of comprehensive aluminium and glass repair services, combining technical expertise with prompt, professional service delivery that keeps your installations looking and performing their best.
The Importance of Professional Aluminium and Glass Services
Aluminium and glass installations represent significant investments in any property. Beyond their aesthetic contribution, these elements serve critical functions including natural lighting, thermal insulation, noise reduction, security, and weather protection. When damage occurs or performance degrades, the consequences extend beyond mere appearance issues. Cracked windows compromise security and energy efficiency, malfunctioning doors create access problems and safety hazards, while damaged partitions disrupt workspace functionality and privacy.
Amateur repair attempts often worsen existing problems, leading to higher long-term costs and potential safety risks. Professional services ensure repairs meet industry standards, use appropriate materials, and restore full functionality while maintaining the original design integrity. Bestcare Facilities Management’s certified technicians possess the specialized knowledge and equipment necessary to handle everything from minor adjustments to major reconstruction projects involving aluminium and glass installations.
Comprehensive Aluminium Repair Services
Our aluminium repair services address the full spectrum of issues that affect aluminium installations in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Aluminium window repairs form a core service area, encompassing frame straightening and reinforcement, replacement of damaged or worn weather stripping, repair or replacement of broken hinges and handles, sliding mechanism restoration for smooth operation, lock mechanism repair and upgrade for enhanced security, and resealing to prevent water infiltration and air leakage.
Aluminium door services include both hinged and sliding door repairs, addressing problems such as sagging doors that won’t close properly, damaged thresholds and tracks, misaligned frames causing difficulty in operation, broken or malfunctioning locking systems, worn rollers in sliding doors, and weatherproofing issues that allow drafts and water entry. We handle standard residential doors, heavy-duty commercial entrance doors, and specialized applications like shopfronts and showroom installations.
Aluminium partitioning systems in offices, hospitals, schools, and commercial spaces require specialized attention. Our partition repair services include glass panel replacement in damaged sections, frame repair and reinforcement, hardware replacement including handles and locks, track system repair for sliding partitions, leveling and alignment corrections, and acoustic seal restoration to maintain sound insulation properties.
Shopfront and facade repairs represent another crucial service area. Commercial properties depend on attractive, functional shopfronts to attract customers and protect inventory. We repair damaged aluminium framing, replace broken glass panels, restore automatic door systems, repair canopy structures, address corrosion issues, and restore powder coating finishes that have faded or been damaged.
Specialized Glass Repair and Replacement
Glass damage ranges from minor chips and cracks to complete panel failures requiring immediate replacement. Bestcare Facilities Management maintains relationships with glass suppliers throughout Nairobi, ensuring access to various glass types including clear float glass in multiple thicknesses, tinted and reflective glass for heat and glare reduction, tempered safety glass for high-risk areas, laminated security glass for enhanced protection, double-glazed insulated units for energy efficiency, decorative and frosted glass for privacy applications, and specialized glass including low-E and acoustic varieties.
Our glass repair services begin with thorough damage assessment to determine whether repair or replacement offers the best solution. Minor chips and small cracks can often be repaired using specialized resin injection techniques that restore structural integrity and optical clarity. However, larger cracks, shattered panels, or damage compromising security require complete glass replacement.
The glass replacement process involves careful removal of damaged panels without disturbing surrounding structures, precise measurement to ensure perfect fit, preparation of frames including cleaning and resealing, installation of new glass with appropriate gaskets and sealants, and final inspection to verify weather-tightness and proper operation. Our technicians handle installations at all heights, utilizing proper safety equipment and scaffolding when necessary for upper-story work.
Emergency Services and Rapid Response
Glass and aluminium damage often occurs unexpectedly through accidents, break-ins, severe weather, or vandalism. Such situations demand immediate attention to restore security and weather protection. Bestcare Facilities Management operates a 24/7 emergency response service throughout Nairobi and surrounding areas, dispatching technicians rapidly to secure damaged premises and perform temporary or permanent repairs.
Emergency boarding-up services provide immediate security when glass panels are completely destroyed. We install temporary barriers that protect against weather and unauthorized entry while permanent replacement glass is sourced and prepared. For urgent situations requiring immediate glass replacement, we maintain stock of common sizes and can often complete permanent repairs within hours rather than days.
Our emergency response extends beyond residential properties to serve commercial clients who cannot afford extended downtime. Retail stores with damaged shopfronts, office buildings with broken entrance doors, and industrial facilities with compromised windows receive priority service that minimizes business interruption and security vulnerabilities.
Maintenance and Preventive Services
While repairs address existing damage, preventive maintenance extends the lifespan of aluminium and glass installations while avoiding costly emergency repairs. Bestcare Facilities Management offers comprehensive maintenance contracts tailored to property needs, encompassing regular inspection schedules, cleaning and lubrication of moving parts, adjustment of hinges and closers, replacement of worn weather stripping before leaks develop, tightening of loose screws and fasteners, inspection and replacement of degraded sealants, and identification of potential problems before they escalate.
Scheduled maintenance proves particularly valuable for commercial properties with extensive aluminium and glass installations. Office buildings, shopping centers, hotels, hospitals, and educational institutions benefit from quarterly or bi-annual maintenance programs that keep hundreds or thousands of windows, doors, and partitions functioning optimally. These programs reduce emergency repair costs, extend installation lifespans, maintain aesthetic appearance, and ensure continued compliance with building codes and safety regulations.
Custom Fabrication and Installation
Beyond repairs, Bestcare Facilities Management provides custom aluminium and glass fabrication for new installations, renovations, and upgrades. Our fabrication capabilities include custom aluminium window manufacturing to specific dimensions and styles, bespoke door systems including hinged, sliding, and folding configurations, office partitioning with various glass and panel combinations, shower enclosures and bathroom installations, balustrades and railings for stairs and balconies, and curtain wall systems for modern building facades.
Each custom project begins with detailed consultation to understand aesthetic preferences, functional requirements, security needs, and budget parameters. Our design team creates technical drawings and provides material samples, enabling informed decisions before fabrication begins. Installation by experienced technicians ensures perfect fit and long-term performance that meets or exceeds industry standards.
Quality Materials and Workmanship
The longevity and performance of aluminium and glass repairs depend heavily on material quality and installation expertise. Bestcare Facilities Management sources materials exclusively from reputable suppliers, utilizing powder-coated aluminium profiles resistant to corrosion and fading, high-grade glass meeting safety standards, stainless steel hardware for coastal and high-moisture environments, quality sealants and gaskets designed for Kenyan climate conditions, and components backed by manufacturer warranties.
Our technicians undergo continuous training in latest installation techniques, safety protocols, and product knowledge. Each team member carries appropriate certifications and insurance, providing clients with confidence that work will be completed safely, professionally, and to the highest standards. We stand behind our work with comprehensive warranties covering both materials and labor, demonstrating our commitment to customer satisfaction and quality workmanship.
