## Something's Wrong With Your Window — Here's What It Usually Is

You don't need to know what a [balancer](/repair/sash-balancer-replacement/) or an IGU is — that's our job. Find your symptom below; every one of them traces back to one specific part, and every one of them is fixable in Charlotte, usually in a single visit.
- Haze between the panes that won't wipe off — a failed glass seal
- Window slams shut or won't stay open — a broken balancer
- Crank grinds or the sash won't swing — a worn operator
- Cold air leaking around the frame — dead weatherstripping
- Soft, flaking wood at the sill or sash — rot that can be cut out

## Fix the Part, Keep the Window

Most companies that come to your Charlotte home sell windows — so every diagnosis somehow ends in "full replacement, $1,000+ per window." The truth: windows are machines made of parts, and parts can be replaced. We carry and source hardware for every major brand — and every not-so-major one.
- Balancers, latches, cranks, rollers — swapped, not upsold
- Fogged glass units re-glassed from $198, frame untouched
- Rotted wood cut out and rebuilt with laminated lumber — from $375

## Window Repair in Charlotte — FAQ

**Q: My window won't stay open — it slams shut the second I let go. Do I need a new window?**

A: No — that's a broken balancer, the spring mechanism inside the frame that holds the sash up. It's one of the most common window failures in Charlotte and one of the cheapest to fix: we replace the balancer for $175 and the window works like new. Nobody should be quoting you a full replacement for this.

**Q: I'm selling my Charlotte home and the inspection report flagged half my windows. What do I do with this list?**

A: Take a breath — an inspection list looks scarier than it costs. Foggy panes, broken latches, dead balancers and torn screens are all per-part repairs: latches from $115, balancers $175, glass units from $198. We price your whole punch list in one visit and knock most of it out the same day, so you close with real numbers instead of a buyer's inflated repair credit.

**Q: Two companies told me my windows are 'too old to repair' and I should replace all of them. Is that true?**

A: It's what window sellers say — because they sell windows. Age isn't a diagnosis: if the frame is sound, an older window needs a specific part — glass unit, balancer, weatherstripping — and those parts exist or can be matched. A new wood double-hung runs about $2,000; the repair that actually fixes yours is usually a few hundred. When replacement genuinely is the better call, we'll tell you that too — in writing.

**Q: Can you repair my brand of windows? They're not one of the big names.**

A: Yes — we repair every brand, period. Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Simonton, Jeld-Wen, and the brands nobody's heard of. Many companies turn down "foreign" brands because sourcing parts is work; we source hardware and build glass units to your window's exact measurements, so the brand on the frame doesn't limit the fix.

**Q: The crank on my casement window grinds and the window barely opens. Is that repairable?**

A: That's the operator — the gear mechanism the crank turns — and yes, it's a standard repair: $275, done on-site. Forcing a grinding crank is what actually breaks casement windows, so it's worth fixing before the sash drops out of alignment and the job gets bigger.

**Q: There's fog between the glass that I can't wipe off. Is that part of window repair too?**

A: Yes — and it's our specialty. Fog between the panes means the sealed glass unit failed, not the window. We build a replacement unit to your exact size and swap just the glass, from $198, keeping your frame and sash. Your windows stay, the fog goes.

**Q: How fast can you actually get here?**

A: Our own crew lives and works in the Charlotte metro — most jobs are booked within days, many same-day for calls that come in early. Nearly every repair finishes in a single visit because we diagnose, measure and carry common parts on the truck.
