Window Frame Repair and Replacement
Windows protect our homes from intruders; provide natural lighting into the house and help insulate us from outdoor heat and cold. When a window frame is damaged or deteriorates, it’s important for your family’s safety and comfort to arrange window frame repairs or replacement as soon as possible. Ensuring your home’s window frames are in good condition will also help your home to be more energy-efficient.
How does a window work?
A window is made of a glass panel, surrounded by the window frame, and includes working components like the hinge, window lock, and other attachments that make the window work properly. The glass and the components are attached to the window frame itself. The window frame holds everything together and is usually made of wood or metal.
Why Should a Window Frame Be Replaced?
A window frame can deteriorate from too much exposure to the weather. If the window frame is made of wood and not painted properly or maintained it can rot. Some window frames are made from steel which will rust and can be eaten away if not maintained correctly.
When the window frame deteriorates, the window’s hinges or sliders can get jammed and become inconvenient or even dangerous to use. A damaged window frame is also less effective at insulating your home from outside temperatures, reducing energy efficiency, and of course a rotting window frame is much less secure, allowing burglars to more easily break into your home.
When your window frame and its components are damaged or deteriorating there are tell-tale signs that they need to be repaired or replaced. Tell-tale signs that indicate a window frame replacement is due would include:
✓ Stuck or frozen locks or hinges.
✓ Shaking glass panes can be a sign of overly rusted hinges or locks or deteriorating glazing seals.
✓ Rot or rust on the window frame
When your wood frame starts to show signs of rot and its paint or metal frames begin to have blister-like rust puffs, it is an obvious sign that you would either need a repair or a replacement. When your window frame is severely damaged, it can be much less secure, and so an easy way for a burglar to break into your house.
So don’t wait before it’s too late. Have your window frame repaired or replaced as soon as possible!
