# Window Repair in High Point, NC > Double-hung that won't stay up, casement that won't crank open — **it's one worn part, not a window you need to replace.** We repair every window type, from **$115**, warrantied. **From $115 · 4.9 · 473+ reviews** ## Double-Hung Won't Stay Up or Stuck Shut? That's the Balancer The classic double-hung failure in High Point homes: the sash slams down the second you let go, or it's stuck shut entirely. Inside the frame there's a spring mechanism — the [balancer](/repair/sash-balancer-replacement/) — that carries the sash's weight, and when it snaps, the window stops behaving. It's a $175 part, not a $2,000 window. - Sash won't stay up / slams shut — balancer, $175 - Stuck shut or painted shut — freed cleanly, hardware serviced - Won't lock or keeper won't line up — latches from $115 - Won't tilt in for cleaning — tilt latches repaired ## Casement Crank Just Spins? The Operator Is Repairable Casement windows fail at the crank: the handle spins but the sash barely moves, grinds halfway, or won't close that last inch. That's the operator — the gear mechanism the crank drives — and we replace it for $275, on any brand, Andersen and Pella included. In a furniture town like High Point, nobody should be told to throw away a good wood window over a worn gear. - Crank spins, grinds or won't turn — operator, $275 - Handle fell off or stripped — replaced same visit - Hinges sagging so the sash won't close — realigned ## How Window Repair Works in High Point Every window type fails in its own way — the process for fixing them is the same four honest steps. - **Tell Us the Type & the Symptom** — Double-hung, casement, slider, picture — plus what it's doing wrong, in your own words.

What's the right move?** A: Don't force it — a jammed double-hung usually means a failed balancer, swollen wood or paint bonding the sash, and prying cracks the glass or the rail. We free it cleanly, replace the balancer if that's the cause ($175), and the window moves like it should again. **Q: The crank handle on my casement window just spins and the window barely opens. Is that repairable?** A: Yes — the handle is fine, the operator gears behind it are stripped. We replace casement operators for $275 on any brand, Andersen and Pella included, and the window cranks open smoothly again. Keep forcing a spinning crank and the sash drops out of alignment — fix it while it's just the gear. **Q: I was quoted new windows for the whole house because mine are 'too old'. Honest opinion?** A: Age isn't a diagnosis. If the frames are sound, an older window needs a specific part — balancer, operator, glass unit, weatherstrip or a rebuilt sill — and those run $115–$375 against ~$2,000 per new wood window. High Point knows good woodwork; don't let anyone talk you into throwing yours away. When replacement genuinely wins, we say so in writing. **Q: There's fog between the panes that won't wipe off. Part of window repair too?** A: Yes — that's a failed seal on the insulated unit, and we fix it without touching the frame. We build a new sealed unit to that window's exact size and swap just the glass, from $198. **Q: Do you service my brand? The installer went out of business years ago.** A: Every brand, including orphaned ones — Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Simonton, Jeld-Wen and the ones nobody remembers. We match hardware and build glass to measure, so a dead installer doesn't mean a dead window. **Q: You're a repair company — but what if I actually want replacement windows?** A: Then we do that too, measured and sealed properly. The difference: with us the conversation starts from the repair math, and replacement happens because the numbers say so — not because it's the only thing on the truck. **Q: How fast can you get to High Point?** A: Our crew works the Triad daily — High Point, Jamestown, Archdale, Greensboro.
