Do you use genuine Pella parts?
Where Pella still makes the part, yes; where the line is discontinued, we match the exact spec — geometry, gauge, handedness — from repair catalogs. Either way the repair carries our written 5-year warranty.

Pella Window Repair — Independent, Parts Matched by Spec
Pella built its name on casements, and casements live or die by the operator — the geared crank that swings the sash. Stripped operators are the number-one Pella call we get, followed by fogged glass in the wood-clad lines (the cladding protects the wood, not the seal) and worn block-and-tackle balancers on the double-hungs. The windows themselves are usually worth saving: Pella frames are quality joinery that outlasts its moving parts.
WowFix is an independent repair company and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or a service agent of Pella. Brand names are used to identify the windows we repair.
Parts & Matching
Pella hardware is brand-specific casting, matched by model year and hinge geometry rather than by a universal kit. We identify the operator or balancer from the unit itself, source the correct pattern — including lines Pella discontinued years ago — and replace fogged glass with sealed units built to the exact daylight opening. On some 1990s lines the operator costs more than a generic part; it is still a fraction of a new casement.

FAQ
My Pella casement crank spins but nothing moves — is the window dead?
No — the operator gearbox is stripped. Operator replacement is $275 parts and labor, and it's the most common Pella repair we do.
Can you fix foggy glass in Pella wood-clad windows?
Yes. The fog is a failed sealed unit, not failed wood — we build the replacement IGU to size and set it in the existing sash, from $198 per pane.
