Misted Window Repair

Fed up of condensation inside your window ruining your view? Clear windows and doors are just a phone call away with professional misted window repair from Totalseal repairs.

Misted windows aren’t just an eye-sore, they are a clear sign that the seal on your window has failed and the unit is compromised.

With the seal broken, your window will no longer be able to prevent heat transfer as effectively as it should, leading to a whole host of issues including higher energy bills and an increased risk of damp and mould.

Our team of professional window repair experts will have your window unit replaced and fully sealed once again in no time at all, keeping you safe, warm, and enjoying unrestricted views once again.

What causes a misted window?

Misted windows are unsightly, annoying, and compromise your energy efficiency. But what causes them?

Double glazed windows work because they are a sealed unit, with two panes of glass separated by a space filled with an insulating gas (usually argon or xenon).

This creates a barrier between your home and the outside world that helps to prevent heat transfer.

If the seal breaks, this ‘sealed’ unit is compromised, the gas will escape and condensation is able to penetrate between the two panes of glass, leading to a misted window.

What is involved in misted window repair?

The Totalseal, misted window repair service is remarkably straightforward.

We simply remove the compromised window panes, replace them with a brand-new sealed unit made of the very latest energy efficient glass and seal it securely back in the frame.

This process restores the integrity of the double glazing in your home, sorts out the issue of condensation on the inside of your windows, and restores the insulating gas within the window at a fraction of the cost of full window replacement.

We repair misted windows in homes and businesses all over Central Scotland and replacing blown windows is a task our professional team perform on a daily basis.

If you are dealing with blown windows on your property, replacement the entire window unit with a new one is by far the best option, and the experts at Totalseal are by far the best people to carry out the work.

Why repair a misted window?

Sure, misted windows don’t look great, but are the really an urgent issue?

Unfortunately, yes. The mist itself is only the start, and it is what the mist represents that causes the real issues.

A misty window is one of the clearest indications that a double glazed unit is no longer sealed, and is no longer performing its vital duties as it should.

Misted or blown double glazing will:

Slash energy efficiency

A broken seal means draughts, leaks, and a lack of insulating gas between your glass panes. It severely compromises the thermal efficiency of your windows and can lead to a significant rise in you energy bills as heat escapes almost as fast as it is produced.

Increase damp and mould

Once moisture has penetrated your failed double glazed window, the race is on to fix the issue before mould and damp issues arise.

Rotten window frames mean complete window replacement and that is a whole lot more expensive than our affordable misty double glazing service.

Damage window aesthetics

Foggy or misty windows aren’t exactly what you paid for when you installed your new windows.

Window condensation doesn’t look great and can disrupt your views of the outside world. Clear misted double glazing and enjoy uninterrupted vistas once again.

For all these reasons, and many more, hiring a professional to fix misted windows is not something you want to be putting off for any longer than necessary.

The Totalseal misted double glazed window replacement team will make the entire process as simply and straightforward as possible, saving you the cost of replacing the entire window and leaving you with a fully sealed glass unit once again.

Misted Window FAQ

What is a blown window?

A blown window is simply another term for a misted window and refers to any double or triple glazed window where the seal between the panes and the frame has failed.

What causes the seal to fail?

There could be any number of reasons your window seal fails, but the most common are:

• General wear and tear
• Poor installation
• Accidental damage
• The use of strong solvent based cleaning chemicals

Is condensation on the outside of a double glazed window a problem?

No. This is a sign that your windows are working exactly how they should, preventing heat transfer from inside to out.

This condensation will normally disappear on its own as the day warms up.

Do I need to change the window frame?

No. Misted windows are related to the seal on the window, not the window frame itself. Seal and glass replacement will fix misted glass issues, eliminate double glazing condensation, and save you a fortune.

The cost to replace glass panes with Totalseal is a fraction of what it cost to install a new uPVC double-glazed window, especially as we keep our repair costs as low as we possibly can.
