Glass Window Repair
Professional window repairmen are able to move large panes of tempered glass from a high point above the ground. They follow strict safety protocols and are often working in harsh weather conditions.
Wearing protective clothing, remove all glaze putty and glazing points using a utility knife. A heat gun may help to soften the old putty and make it easier to remove.
Replacement
It's tempting to fix the window glass instead of replacing it when the glass breaks. It is more cost-effective to replace a window, and it will also help avoid other issues that could affect the efficiency of your home. It is also important to consider the type of glass that's damaged to determine if it is a temporary fix or if you will need to invest in an option that is more permanent.
To repair a broken window, you must remove the sash or frame and place it on the floor. Wearing eye protection, gently move the frame and remove any shards remaining in the window pane. Then, use a utility knife to peel off the glazing compound and points that hold the glass in the position. Make sure you keep the track of the components and their locations so that they can be reinstalled later.
Once the frame and sash have been removed then you can begin the process of preparing to install new glass. Make sure you check the opening of the frame is of the correct size for the replacement window. To allow for the expansion of the frame and glass and contraction take measurements in both directions across the opening and subtract 1/8 inch. After that, you can purchase double-strength glasses cut to these precise dimensions. It is a good idea to also purchase enough glazier's clips, or points to install every 6 inches around each window pane.
Based on the window's warranty it could be covered by the manufacturer, in which case you need to contact them to make an claim. Once the new glass is installed, it must be covered with a thin coating of glazier's compound. After the compound has dried and dry, you can paint it to match the rest of the window frame.
If you have a crack that extends more than an inch, scoring a small arc with a razor blade that is just above the crack can help to prevent it from spreading any further. This method isn't foolproof, but it can slow the growth of the cracked until you can take permanent measures.
