We Repair and Replace Double Glazed Units

Double Glazed Sealed Units in Essex

A number of homes across Essex are now fitted with double glazing. We therefore receive many enquiries about misted-up double glazing or broken glass. Double glazed windows need regular maintenance due to old age or damage, and this is why we are here to help homeowners throughout Essex.

There are many factors that contribute to the misting up of double glazed sealed units. One of these factors can be temperature conditions. If a double glazed sealed unit is fitted somewhere that it is exposed to hot and cold temperatures all of the time, then in theory, this can shorten the lifespan of the materials used to seal it (expansion and contraction of materials). Another contributing factor can be the UPVC window frames that the double glazed units are fitted within. For example, if the frames allow rain to penetrate below the beading (poorly fitted beading or worn gasket rubber), then the double glazed unit may be sitting in water, making it less effective and shortening the life of materials that seal it. Poor construction of the double glazed sealed unit may also be a contributing factor. However, in most cases, misting up simply occurs due to old age.

So if you have a double glazed sealed unit in your Essex property that needs replacing, we have extensive experience in carrying out repairs.
