Misted Double Glazing in Peterlee

Misted Double Glazing in Peterlee

Double glazing in Peterlee that has misted between the panes, gone cloudy or cracked needs a new sealed unit. The frame and the window’s working parts stay.

No glass job is recorded in the Peterlee area yet; the example below is labelled with where it was.

Recent Work in the Peterlee Area

Genuine jobs we have completed in the Peterlee area, of any kind (not necessarily misted double glazing work):

• Window Repairs To 2 Windows in Peterlee (Window Mechanisms): Two windows would not lock or unlock because faulty mechanisms were not moving the shootbolts; both mechanisms were changed.
• Lost keys in Horden (Emergency Lockout): The customer had lost the keys and could not get into the property. The door was opened without damage and the lock was changed.
• Lock change in Shotton Colliery: The customer needed their locks changing, and a replacement lock was fitted.

Why Sealed Units Fail

A sealed unit is two panes held apart by a spacer, with the gap sealed. Over time the seal can fail, moist air gets in, and it condenses on the inside faces of the glass where it cannot be reached. Once that happens it does not reverse, so the unit is replaced.

Replacement, Step by Step

The pane is measured, a unit is made to size, and the old one is taken out of the frame and the new one fitted. The window is then checked for opening and locking. A smashed unit is replaced the same way; in Houghton-le-Spring one was replaced in its existing frame (the job).

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you replace glass in a door?

Yes. Door glass, side panels and fanlights are sealed units too.

Does the window need to come out?

No. Only the glass unit is replaced; the frame stays fitted.
