PRESS RELEASE
Published June 11, 2024

Australia adopted important changes to the National Construction Code (NCC) on the 1st of May 2023. SOS Glass Services recently confirmed its continued compliance with the new regulatory measures, which enforce new safety standards for glass balustrade installs, repairs, and replacements in Mortdale.

The new safety standards are essential for homeowners and contractors installing, repairing, or replacing glass balustrades. Some sections of the NCC became mandatory in May 2023.

According to the new requirements, laminated safety glass is now required for balustrades located 5 metres or more above the ground. Furthermore, monolithic toughened glass is only permitted for use under 5 metres if it satisfies the provisions of section 7.4.5 of the NCC.

SOS Glass Services, which specialises in installing and repairing glass balustrades for residential and commercial properties, has confirmed its ability to comply with the new regulatory provisions.

When asked about the company's commitment to compliance with the NCC changes, a spokesperson for SOS Glass Services said, "Safety is our number 1 priority. Therefore, we ensure that all our products and installations remain compliant and meet the Australian Safety Standards."

The NCC changes are a regulatory minefield for Mortdale property owners, leaving contractors responsible for complying with the new updates. With over 25 years of experience in the glazing industry, SOS Glass Services is no stranger to regulatory changes.

This latest push to comply with new NCC safety requirements for glass balustrades aligns with the Australian-owned contractor's longstanding track record of adherence to legal building and licensing standards.

Since the adoption of the new balustrade construction provisions in the National Construction Code, homeowners are seeing the positive results of working with compliant companies: "We used SOS glass to fix the horrendous and incomplete job one of the local balustrade companies had left us with," said one satisfied client. "They went out of their way to attend and fix the damage."
