Double glazed windows are a fantastic feature in any home or building. They provide excellent insulation, reduce noise, and help to lower energy bills. But like any part of your property, they can develop problems over time. Whether you’re dealing with condensation between the panes, broken seals, or cracked glass, NO.8 Workshop offers professional and reliable double glazed window repairs across Wellington.
Why Do Double Glazed Windows Fail?
Double glazing works by trapping a layer of air (or gas) between two panes of glass, creating an insulating barrier. But when the seal between these panes breaks, moisture can seep in – causing condensation, fogging, and reduced energy efficiency. This is one of the most common issues we see in Wellington homes, especially with the region’s damp and coastal conditions.
Other problems include:
- Cracked or broken glass
- Warped frames causing gaps or drafts
- Sticking or hard-to-open windows
- Failed locks, hinges, or handles
Ignoring these issues can lead to poor insulation, higher power bills, and even damage to your window frames or sills. That’s why timely repairs are essential.
