Signs That Your Double Glazing Has Failed
If you think that your double glazing may need replacing, look out for some of the following telltale signs:
- Cloudy/foggy windows
- Water is leaking through the frame
- Condensation between the two panes of glass
- Cracks or chips in the glass
- Visible damage, particularly to the seals
- Difficult to open close and lock, or are sticking
- Draughts appear around your windows.
Whether you’ve noticed these signs or even something different, it’s best to get in touch with a local double glazing specialist. As long as they are not too extensive, many problems can be repaired.

Frequently Asked Questions
When Is It Important To Consider Replacement Windows Instead Of Repair?
Whilst many faults can be repaired, there are times when replacement windows are a better long-term solution. Especially if your window frames are warped, or your double-glazed units have been repaired multiple times. Working with a trustworthy professional means that you’ll receive impartial advice about your windows and the best course of action.
Will Repairing My Double Glazing Improve The Energy Efficiency In My Home?
Yes, repairing your double glazing will restore much of the insulation performance. Therefore, this will reduce heat loss and draughts, and improve the comfort of your home.
Why Should I Repair Rather Than Replace My Double Glazed Windows?
Repairing your windows is a good, cost-effective solution for homes in Essex when the window frames are still in good condition. A repair will also typically cost less than a full replacement, offer a faster turnaround and less disruption, and produce less waste.
Why Does My Window Let In A Draft?
Your window may have faulty hinges and therefore is not closing properly. Therefore, it may be time to install replacement hinges and seals.
What Can I Do To Prevent Blown Double Glazing?
Regular maintenance, keeping your window frames clean and ensuring the seals are intact will all help prevent blown glazing. Avoiding excess stress, such as slamming or overtightening the locks, will also prevent further issues.
What are Window Gaskets And What Do They Do?
Window gaskets are rubber seals that fit around the edge of your window to provide a weatherproof seal. These gaskets will prevent drafts and water leakage, and will improve the insulation of your windows by providing a tight fit.
What Causes The Lock On A Double-Glazed Window To Fail?
Lock failure is typically caused by wear and tear, dirt build-up, or misaligned windows, which can stop the window from closing properly and locking. As locks make up a significant part of your home security, and can also lead to draughts and heat loss, it’s therefore important to take corrective action.
How Do I Stop Condensation On My Windows?
Moisture accumulation on windows due to condensation can lead to damage and even mould growth. This can be harmful to your health, so the source of the condensation must be identified and dealt with. Condensation can be caused by many different factors; if you suspect that your windows are the primary cause, it’s best to get them checked.
