Rotted Sill, Caught in Time
Decay cut out completely and rebuilt in real wood — no filler, no new window.
If you re-windowed your Dunwoody house in the '90s or 2000s, that first generation of sealed glass is reaching the end of its seals — and the fix is a made-to-measure glass unit from $198, not a second round of replacement. Your frames stay exactly where they are.

Not sure what it is?
Walk the timeline of a typical Dunwoody colonial: built in the '70s with single-pane wood windows, then upgraded somewhere between 1995 and 2008 — either full new insulated windows or, very commonly here, add-on insulated glass sashes fitted into the original wood frames. Those first-generation sealed units carried seals engineered for a 15-to-25-year life, and the math has now come due across the Club Estates, Redfield and Georgetown almost simultaneously. The tell is unmistakable under the canopy: on a humid morning, the shaded windows wear a gray veil that sits inside the glass — no cloth touches it, from either face — then softens as the day warms, only to return at the next dawn. That's moisture breathing in and out of a cavity whose desiccant gave up long ago.
Here's what the replacement industry won't lead with: everything you paid for in the '90s upgrade — the frames, the sashes, the trim carpentry, the paint — is still perfectly good. Only the factory-sealed glass sandwich inside it has expired, and that sandwich is a replaceable component. We measure your failed unit to the millimeter, fabricate a new insulated glass unit with rigid spacers, fresh desiccant and dual-seal edges built for Georgia humidity, and set it into the sash you already own. The add-on insulated sashes common in Dunwoody's older frames re-glass the same way. No demolition, no trim damage, no repainting — and no $1,000-plus-per-opening invoice for a second 'replacement' the house never needed.
Measured first, fabricated in advance, swapped in one scheduled stop — with a firm date from dispatch.
Tell dispatch which windows have the between-the-panes veil — you get a firm appointment on the metro-Atlanta route, not an open-ended window.
We confirm true seal failure, then record width, height, thickness, spacer style and any Low-E coating — and put the price in writing before ordering.
Each replacement IGU is fabricated to your measurements with rigid spacers and a desiccant perimeter engineered for Georgia's humidity swings.
Expired unit out, new unit bedded in fresh sealant, glass inspected in daylight — all of it under a 5-year written workmanship warranty.

No stock footage, no actors — this is one of our actual jobs. Watch a rotted, fogged-out window brought back to flawless, like-new glass.
Snap a clear photo of every foggy, cracked or stuck window in natural light. Morning light shows fog between the panes best and lets us quote faster — often before we arrive.
Jot down the symptom per window — fog between the glass, won't open or stay up, draft, cracked pane, or rotted frame. It tells us whether it's a glass-only swap (from $198) or hardware/wood work.
Move furniture, blinds and décor back roughly three feet so our crew can measure and work safely. It keeps the visit quick and your things out of the way.
If you have the original window brand, a sticker in the frame, or install paperwork, set it aside. It's not required, but it helps us match glass and parts on the first trip.
Unlock gates, secure pets, and clear the exterior path to the windows. Most glass-unit work is done from both sides, so outside access keeps everything one visit.
Decay cut out completely and rebuilt in real wood — no filler, no new window.
We fabricate an exact-profile piece from laminated lumber and splice it in.
New glass built to the window's exact size — frame and trim untouched.
The pane is the part that failed — so the pane is the part we replace.
A failed seal, not a failed window: the sealed unit is swapped, the frame stays.
Rotted bottom rebuilt on-site — a fraction of the ~$10,000 a new door runs.
