Builder-installed window serviced by WowFix — new subdivision outside
We Answer After Year One
After the Warranty

Your Builder's Warranty Was One Year. Your Windows Weren't.

Garner's newer subdivisions all live the same timeline: year one, the builder fixes things. Year five or eight, the first balancer dies, a unit fogs up, a latch stops catching — and suddenly nobody's phone rings through. The builder's obligation ended long ago; the window manufacturer's paper warranty, if it covers anything, covers parts and not the labor to install them. That gap is exactly where we live: diagnose the failure, supply the part, install it, warranty the work — from $115 a line.

  • Builder gone, manufacturer pointing at 'labor'? That's our lane

  • Balancers $175 · latches $115 · fogged units from $198

  • Any brand the builder used — no dealer runaround

  • Our own 5-year workmanship warranty on the repair

Repair, Not Restart

'Window Replacement' Searches Usually End at a $175 Part

When the first windows in a young house fail, the search reflex says 'replacement' — but a seven-year-old window is a healthy window with a dead component. The frame is fine, the glass is usually fine, the installation is fine; a $175 balancer or a $198 sealed unit puts it back to factory behavior. Whole-window replacement in a house this age is almost always money donated to someone's sales quota — and on the rare occasion it's genuinely needed, we'll show you why in writing.

  • Young windows fail at parts, not as units

  • Repair lines: $115–$375 · replacement windows: $1,000+ each

  • Honest written verdict when replacement truly applies

  • Same-visit fixes for most hardware failures

The Process

How Window Repair Works in Garner

No warranty paperwork required — just the window and its symptom.

01/Symptom, Not Serial Number

Won't stay up, fogged, won't lock — you don't need the builder's spec sheet; the window tells us its story.

02/Named Part, Written Price

The failed component identified and priced from the catalog — $115 to $375 covers nearly everything post-warranty.

03/Supplied & Installed

We bring the part, install it and adjust the window to spec — no waiting on a manufacturer's parts department.

04/Warrantied Again

Cycled and locked with you watching — and this time the warranty is ours, written, and five years long.

Eugene fabricated both screens and new half double-pane windows for my home. He was professional, dedicated, and experienced. He went above and beyond to ensure the job was done right and in a timely manner. I would highly recommend WowFix for work that meets all expectations!

I had a fantastic experience with WowFix. They repaired my existing windows by cutting out rotted sashes, fashioning new ones on-site, and splicing them in. They look and work absolutely good as new!

WowFix is a great company for repairs on doors and windows. I had two rotten double-door frames that they rebuilt. They communicate well and the pricing was fair.

Window Repair in Garner — FAQ

Frustratingly normal. Production homes get production-grade hardware, and its working life is measured in single-digit years — the frames and glass around it are built for decades. Your house isn't failing; its smallest moving parts are retiring on schedule, and they swap for $115–$175 each.
Before We Arrive

How to Prepare for Your WowFix Window Repair Visit

  1. 1

    Photograph each problem window in daylight

    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.

  2. 2

    Note what each window is doing wrong

    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.

  3. 3

    Clear about three feet in front of each window

    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.

  4. 4

    Find any window brand or paperwork

    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.

  5. 5

    Make sure we can reach the windows outside

    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.
