When do you need a Misted or broken glass?

This service is needed when you see condensation between the panes of your double glazing (misting), or if a window or door pane is cracked, shattered, or has a hole.

What happens on the day

A glazier will visit to measure the damaged glass unit or pane and typically replace it on the same day if in stock, or order a custom unit for a later fitting. For broken glass, they will ensure the area is safe first.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the affected window or door.
  • Take photos of the misting or damage.
  • Note the rough dimensions if possible (width x height).
  • Be ready to describe the type of window frame (e.g., uPVC, wood, aluminium).
  • For broken glass, ensure children and pets are kept away from the area.

How to improve your result

  • Consider upgrading to higher energy-rated glass units when replacing misted ones.
  • Choose toughened or laminated glass for increased security and safety, especially in doors.
  • If replacing glass in a bathroom, opt for obscure glass for privacy.
  • Address any potential frame issues if the damage was caused by stress or movement.

Why it is useful day to day

Enjoy clear views, improved thermal insulation, and a safer, more attractive home without the need to replace entire window frames.

Why we ask these questions

We ask about the location, size, and type of glass damage to help our glaziers understand the job. This ensures they bring the correct tools, materials, and can provide an accurate estimate for replacement.
