What You Need to Know Before Buying Blown Window Seal Repair in Essex?
As a leading supplier of blown window seal repair services throughout Essex and Suffolk, The Plastic Doctor should be your number one resource for all your damaged window questions.
Yes, you can call us on 0845 601 8291 for any windows that have a broken seal in the Essex and Suffolk area. Our expert glaziers have years of experience in creating top class blown window seal repair near you. Areas we cover include Basildon, Bishops Stortford, Brentwood, Clacton, Dunmow, Harlow, Harwich, and Maldon, as well as the bigger towns of Colchester, Chelmsford, and even into Ipswich.
If your window seal is blown it may mean the whole window has blown in or out. It also might mean that you get misty windows as the broken seal allows moisture to enter and become trapped between the two pieces of glass in your double glazing. You can only repair misty windows using a specialist skilled in broken seal repair. However, they can repair the blown seal, saving you the cost of buying a replacement.
If your windows are damaged and you have home insurance, the cost is usually covered by your policy. Double check before you buy blown window seal repair. If you are not a homeowner, you may find that your landlord is responsible for the costs.
Your landlord has a duty of care to you. You pay rent and they pay to upkeep the structural integrity of your home. Your lease agreement may actively prevent you from paying for the blown window seal repair. Check your lease agreement carefully or report the need for a repair to your landlord. They are legally obliged to act on the repairs in a reasonable time. Citizens Advice will give you more information on this. Please recommend The Plastic Doctor to your Essex landlord so they can take advantage of our competitive rates.
The cost of a blown window seal repair will vary depending on the size and shape of your windows and the complexity of the job. Bigger windows like those in conservatories mean more work and come with a higher price. You can use The Plastic Doctor’s FREE QUOTE service to get an estimate for your window.
Some signs that indicate a window seal has failed or is blown include fogging between the window panes, condensation or frost inside the glass, and noticeable drafts around the edges. The window may also appear warped or cracked.
Blown window seal repairs usually take just a few hours start to finish when being handled by an experienced technician. The broken seals must be replaced with new sealant and the moisture drained and glass cleaned from in between the panes.
Not necessarily. As long as the window glass itself remains in good condition without any cracks or breakage, only the compromised seals need to be repaired. Complete window replacement is only needed when damage occurs to the window itself.
Transparent Pricing and Insurance
A blown window seal can cause a couple of issues - either the whole window gets knocked out of place, or you just get some misty condensation between the panes from the broken seal letting moisture inside. We'll accurately assess what needs to be done and take care of it for you, rather than having you pay for entirely new windows or doors.
Pricing for a window seal repair is straightforward - it depends on things like window size and how tricky the fix ends up being. Bigger windows obviously take more work, so something like a conservatory window might run slightly higher than your average window pane.
We'll always give you a free quote upfront so there are no surprises. We'll explain exactly what we'll need to do and what that means cost-wise for you. That way, you can decide if it makes sense to move forward. Sometimes home insurance will cover seal repairs, so double-check on that, too. And if you rent, these fix-it costs usually fall on your landlord. Whatever the situation, we aim to keep repairs affordable and will be fully transparent about pricing from the very first call.
