Window Glass Replacement

There are several signs that your window glass may need replacement, including visible cracks or chips, persistent fogging, condensation between panes, noticeable drafts, dull appearance, reduced visibility or stains, and increased energy bills. These issues can indicate that your window glass is no longer providing adequate insulation or protection from the elements. 

If you notice any of these problems, it's best to call us to assess the situation and determine if glass replacement is necessary. We can evaluate the condition of your windows and recommend the most appropriate course of action to ensure your home remains comfortable and energy-efficient.

To evaluate your specific situation, our skilled technicians can examine your windows for any signs of damage or wear to decide the most appropriate course of action. Often, this may involve minor seal and hardware repairs or a complete glass replacement. In severe cases, we might suggest replacing the entire window, but only if we notice any of the following:

• Single-pane existing window

• Widespread rot throughout the frame

• Outdated or unavailable window hardware

• Repair leading to exposure to lead-based paint

If any of the mentioned issues are detected, a full window replacement is required, as these problems are not easily fixable and may still fail even after attempting a repair. Our skilled technicians can efficiently repair all other broken or damaged components, leaving your existing window looking and functioning like new.

Whether you require a simple repair or a complete window replacement, our team is ready to collaborate with you to find a cost-effective and convenient solution.

Several aspects need to be taken into account when replacing your windows, as they will affect the total cost.

Key factors to consider are the window style, frame material, overall size, and the number of panes. For instance, a triple-glazed window will cost more than a double-glazed one, but it will also provide better insulation against noise and temperature fluctuations. Additionally, less common features like special coatings to strengthen or tint the glass may also influence the price.

It is also crucial to consider the number of windows you plan to replace. While selecting your preferred options for a single window may seem budget-friendly, the costs can quickly escalate when multiplied by several windows.

At Window Repair Guys, we recognize that window replacement can be a substantial expense. We will collaborate with you to understand your requirements and budget constraints. Based on this, we can offer a variety of options that strike the ideal balance between affordability, quality, and the style and functionality you desire.

Defogging is the most economical method for reducing moisture in foggy windows but unfortunately, it will not last as long as traditional glass replacement. Moisture Removal works best when performed in the early stages of seal failure if your window has had moisture trapped for a full season or has any stains (white residue) inside the glass panes then Glass Replacement will be your best option. Our professionals can restore your windows from the exterior of your home in less than a day, even while you're at work!

No window is completely airtight; in fact, if it were, it would burst! We have discovered that many of failed windows do not have a total seal failure but are instead fully saturated due to years of solar pumping.

Solar pumping occurs naturally during the transition from day to night. Sunlight warms the inner airspace of the thermal window cavity during the day, causing the window to pressurize and expel small amounts of air through the semi-permeable seal. As the temperature drops in the evening, the window cools, creating a low-pressure area that draws in small amounts of moist air between the panes.

The moist air is absorbed by the window's silica material. Over time, solar pumping activity saturates the silica material in the thermal window cavity, eventually causing fog, condensation, or moisture to appear on the window's interior surface. If left untreated, this trapped moisture can cause irreparable damage.

Thermal pane windows are designed with eventual failure in mind. Window manufacturers anticipate solar pumping and know that windows will inevitably fail. They design windows with a specific lifespan based on the quality of the moisture-absorbing materials placed inside the spacer bar of a thermal window. If your windows are over 15 years old or show signs of moisture, you should install Window Repair Guys Window Vents to prevent irreversible damage.

Yes, in many cases, you can replace just the glass without replacing the entire window. This is often a more cost-effective solution, especially if the window frame and hardware are still in good condition. Replacing only the glass can address issues like cracks, fogging, or condensation while preserving the existing window structure. 

A professional window repair company can assess your windows and determine if this option is suitable for your situation. They can then remove the damaged glass and install new, high-quality glass that matches the specifications of your original windows, ensuring a seamless and efficient glass replacement process.
