Sealed units for double glazing have only been in existence since the 70s, so no one is particularly sure how long they\u2019re expected to last. What\u2019s clear though is that your windows should be lasting at least 15 years and double glazing repairs won\u2019t often be needed inside this initial period.<\/p>\n

On most occasions, when your double glazing faults, the efficiency has been lost. Efficiency is what makes double glazing such a vital investment and if this is reduced your units won\u2019t be anywhere near as effective as before.<\/p>\n

One of the most common problems homeowners find with their old double glazing, is condensation or water on the inside of the units, between the two panes of glass. This is typically because of manufacture or installation, rarely anything the homeowner has done themselves.<\/p>\n

If this has happened to your units, double glazing repairs aren\u2019t an option. You\u2019ll simply need to replace the units. This isn\u2019t as bad as it sounds because by doing so you\u2019ll instantly improve the efficiency of the window and cut your bills.

Double glazing repairs are normally focused on the aesthetics rather than the make-up of the window. For instance, if an uPVC frame has cracked, or rot has appeared on your wooden units you can bring in a professional double glazing company to deal with the problem.<\/p>\n
