01 / About

The low-cost
glazier South Auckland
keeps coming back to.

Papakura Glass Ltd has been the long-established, recognised glass repair business across the wider South Auckland area since 1980. Through several ownership changes our experience kept compounding — and the current owners have stretched our service area to cover greater Auckland.

Our highly qualified, experienced glaziers are always available — residential or commercial. We're known for getting to jobs quickly, often same-day, and for keeping our prices low enough that locals recommend us by name. If you want your broken window fixed without costing the earth, you've come to the right glaziers.

We provide free quotations to all government Social Housing customers and supply WINZ quotes for people on benefits.

Drag to see
the difference.

A typical day on the job — broken pane replaced, frame re-puttied, sealed and finished. Most residential jobs are in and out the same day.

Twelve ways
we put
glass back
where it belongs.

No job is too small or too big. From a single broken pane in a hallway to a full commercial shop front re-glaze. Aluminium, wooden, UPVC frames — we work across the lot. Tap a service for the detail.
