Double glazing repairs Colchester.

Repair-first answer for Colchester homes

Many double glazing faults are localised. If the frame and opening are still sound, a measured glass unit, hardware repair, lock change or alignment adjustment may restore the window or door without replacing the whole installation.

When the fault is glass

Condensation between panes, cracked glass or a blown sealed unit usually points to glazing replacement inside the existing frame. The important first step is measuring and confirming the unit type, glass finish and safety requirements.

When the fault is hardware

Stiff handles, windows that will not close, doors that catch and locks that will not engage usually need hardware or alignment diagnosis. That can include hinges, keeps, barrels, multipoint locks, handles, seals and closing pressure.
