Rotted Sill, Caught in Time
Decay cut out completely and rebuilt in real wood — no filler, no new window.
A 1952 ranch with rope-hung wood sashes on one lot, a new custom with giant casements on the next — Bellaire runs two centuries of windows side by side, and we repair both from the same catalog, from $115. Cords, balances, cranks, locks — fixed in one scheduled visit, no window leaves its wall.

Not sure what it is?
The City of Homes rebuilds itself one lot at a time: a builder buys a 1950s ranch, and a two-story custom rises where it stood — while the ranch next door keeps living its eighth decade. That lot-by-lot arithmetic gives Bellaire a window population no other Houston-area city has. The surviving ranches of Southdale and Westmoreland Farms still run true wood double-hungs on rope-and-pulley counterweights: cords fray after seventy years, iron weights slip their knots and thud inside the wall, and generations of paint glue sashes into their frames. Across the fence, the customs of the 2000s and 2010s carry a different burden — casement operators and multipoint locks that outlived their builder warranty the quiet way, plus Texas heat that anneals every spring it can reach. Two failure modes, one street. Neither one is a reason to buy new windows.
Bellaire is compact — about 17,000 residents on streets a truck crosses in minutes — so a single scheduled stop can carry a whole house's list regardless of its birth year. On a ranch that means re-roping or converting tired counterweight sashes at $175 a window, freeing paint-sealed sashes so they travel again, and renewing the weatherstrip that seventy summers flattened. On a custom it means new operators at $275, multipoint hardware from $115, and hinges reset so the big casements pull closed square. Whatever the walk-through finds outside the hardware lane hands off without a sales pitch: haze locked inside a sealed unit becomes a from-$198 glass exchange, a shattered pane becomes made-to-measure glass, a soft sill becomes a real-wood rebuild from $375. Every line lands on one written sheet — and nobody mentions the $1,000+ per opening that full replacement bills.
Name every symptom, take a firm date, watch the list die in one visit — ranch or custom alike.
Tell us what each one does — hangs by a cord, painted shut, crank slips, won't lock, leaks air. Era doesn't matter; every symptom maps to a catalog line.
Dispatch places Bellaire on a scheduled Houston-metro route and commits a date in advance, loading the truck against your list — cords and weights for the ranch, operators and locks for the custom.
Sashes re-roped, balances renewed, painted seams cut free, cranks and multipoint hardware swapped, weatherstrip laid — every item at its printed price on one sheet.
Each serviced window runs its full travel and locks while you watch, then the visit goes under a written 5-year workmanship warranty.
Bellaire window repair starts at $115 and follows the part that failed — the same printed catalog covers a 1952 ranch and a 2015 custom, in writing before work begins:
Every repair comes with a written workmanship warranty. If it's not right, we come back and make it right.
We fix the part that failed — glass, seal, sash or hardware — so you keep your windows and skip full-replacement cost.
Your repair is done by our own technicians, never subcontracted — visits run on scheduled routes with a firm appointment date.
A clear quote before any work starts. No hidden fees, no upsells, no pressure to replace what we can repair.

No stock footage, no actors — this is one of our actual jobs. Watch a rotted, fogged-out window brought back to flawless, like-new condition.
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.
