Should You Repair or Replace Your Cracked Windows: A Guide to Making the Right Choice
Discovering you have an issue with a component of your home can be jarring for any homeowner. This is especially true when damage occurs to a component of your home that’s not easily replaced—such as your window. When many homeowners sustain cracks or other damage to their house window’s glass, they’re not sure what steps to take next. Does broken glass warrant a full window replacement, or will a window glass repair be sufficient?
As a trusted window glass repair company, C&C Glass is here to provide you with what you need to know when deciding between a window repair and window replacement for your window’s cracked glass.
When to Have Your Window Glass Repaired
If you are only dealing with some cracked or broken glass—meaning that your windows are otherwise functioning efficiently—then a window glass repair may be a good option for you. A glass repair is a great way to get your windows looking and performing like new, and it typically costs much less and is easier to complete than a window replacement. This process involves measuring your window, ordering replacement glass, and then expertly installing it to restore your window to like-new condition.
When to Have Your Window Glass Replaced
Of course, there are some instances in which a full window replacement may be a better idea than simply having your glass repaired. Primarily, you’ll want to consider the overall age and performance of your windows. House windows have an average lifespan of 15 to 30 years, depending on factors such as the original quality of the windows, the installation, and how they are maintained. If your windows are nearing the end of their lifespan, you may want to consider having them fully replaced. It may not be worth it—both financially and effort-wise—to repair your window’s glass only to have to undergo a full window replacement in another year. A trusted window repair company will likely be able to evaluate your windows with you and help you determine whether a glass repair or full window replacement makes the most sense in your situation.
