Snapshot of our Glass Repair Services:

1. Cracking or Inoperable Windows – Frames that are hard to open may be blocked by rust, chips of wood, or hardened paint. This can be fixed by sanding, scraping hardened paint and cleaning tracks. If you have historic windows that may have toxic lead paint, please hire professional window restoration services for your safety.
2. Broken Panes – There’s no need to replace the entire window if the frame is still intact and only the single or dual pane glass is broken. If the window is a dual pane or even triple pane, the entire glass unit will need to be replaced. This involves removing shards of glass and scraping away the putty the seals the original glass. You can opt in replacing the broken glass with energy efficient replacement glass.
3. Chips and Cracks – Golf balls, rocks and a stray BB are common occurrences for star shaped chips in exterior window glass. Household glass can also suffer from accidental impacts, leading to cracking. Because dual pane glass units are sealed, replacement of chipped and cracked window glass is the only option.
4. Broken or Bent Frame – If left broken and unsealed this damage can affect the heating and insulation of your home, especially during winter. If the damage is just minimal or in small patches, this can still be repaired. However, for entire frames, it might cost same as replacing the entire window.
5. Foggy Streaks – Changes in temperature can affect the seals and may cause condensation between double glass panes. An easy repair can be done by refitting or replacing the sash.
6. Sticking Rollers – The rollers on outside edges of the frame can wear or rust, leaving them inoperable. This is especially true with sliding glass doors where the load is heavier than normal.
7. Failed Window Balances – Vertical sliding windows, also known as single or double hung windows can get stuck or are difficult to open. In most cases they need window balance replacement to function smoothly again.
