Window Repair

A window that sticks, rattles, leaks or will not stay up is more than a nuisance. It lets in air and water, wastes energy and can be a safety problem if it will not lock or open in an emergency. Many window problems have simple causes and simple fixes, and replacing the whole window is not always necessary. Homeowners in Nashville call us when a window has stopped working and they want an honest answer about what it needs.

We start with the window as a whole system. We open and close it, check the sash, the balances or crank, the locks, the weatherstripping, the glass and the frame. Then we explain what we found, what can be repaired and what is beyond repair, and give you a written scope. Many repairs are finished on the first visit when parts are common. If the window is too far gone, or a repair would cost more than it is worth, we tell you plainly.

Whole-window check

A window that will not stay up may have a bad balance, a swollen frame or a painted-in sash. We look at everything before we repair anything.

Repair or replace

We compare the cost of repair with replacement and tell you honestly which makes sense for each window.

Parts that fit

Balances, locks, cranks and weatherstripping must match the window, so we identify the model and use matched parts.

Safety first

A window you may need in an emergency must open and lock properly, so we check that before we leave.
