Glazing repairs are a huge responsibility for any glazing business, as they have to be at a height, with large glass panes and follow strict protocols. The seal that holds the two glass panes together can break and causes water or moisture to collect in double-glazed windows. This can be repaired with a process known as reglazing. Cracked or chipped panes A cracked or chipped window pane is not only unsightly, it can leave your home vulnerable to the elements. Although it's impossible to prevent cracks from developing however, you can take steps to stop their spread and prolong the lifespan of your windows. Make use of a strong-hold adhesive tape to hold the crack in place. This is one of the most effective and efficient ways to prevent it from becoming worse. Masking tape or packing tape will be the best solution for superficial cracks, like stress cracks that are caused by cold temperatures, which cause the glass to expand and contract. For more severe cracks, you may need to double the amount of tape being used and each piece being extended beyond the edges of the glass on both sides. Nail polish is also a possibility when you are looking for an alternative that is less invasive. Clear nail polish contains adhesive properties that aid in stopping the crack from growing and closes the gap to stop moisture from entering or leaving your home. However, this kind of repair won't last long and will need to be reapplied frequently. Epoxy is much more durable than other solutions to repair damaged window glass. To remove any debris, or broken pieces of glass clean the affected area using soap and water. Put on protective gloves and safety glasses to prepare the area for work. Remove the sash from your window, if needed (newer casement windows come with release catchers that make this process simpler). Mi
