Kinds of window repair work
These are the kinds of work homeowners in Las Vegas ask an independent repair company about. This page is not a menu this site sells, not a bid, and not a statement that a particular company will do the work.
Glass replacement
A cracked or broken pane is the straightforward case. The company measures the glass, matches the thickness, and, where the opening needs it, uses safety glass. Single-pane glass and one pane of a dual unit are different orders. Say which you have. How to look at a crack.
Insulated glass unit replacement
When the seal has failed, the usual repair is a new sealed unit: two panes, a spacer, and a new seal, set back into a sound frame. The grids, tint, and low-coatings on the old glass are details the measurer has to match. This site does not specify brands or energy ratings.
If the frame is soft, out of square, or the sash hardware has failed, a new unit alone does not finish the job. Fogged glass.
Hardware, balances, and locks
Rollers, balances, operators, and locks are the parts that make a window move and latch. A sash that drops or a slider that grinds is often this work, with the glass left in place. Parts are specific to the window, so a company usually has to see the hardware or a clear photo you keep for yourself. Sash and lock checks.
Screens
Rescreening replaces the mesh and the spline in a frame that is still straight. A bent screen frame is a separate piece. Screen work does not stop a draft and does not make an opening safe. Screen problems.
Frames and weatherseals
Weatherstrip, sash alignment, and limited frame repair sit here. A whole-window replacement is a larger project than a glass repair, and it is the right conversation when the frame itself has failed. This site does not set a rule for when that line is crossed. The person who can see the opening has to.
