upvc SINGLE, DOUBLE AND patterned GLAZING REPLACEMENTS
uPVC windows and doors use sealed glass units manufactured to fit each individual frame. We replace failed, misted, cracked and damaged double-glazed units without automatically replacing the complete window or door.
Condensation or clouding between the panes usually means the seal around the glass unit has failed. Once this happens, the moisture cannot be cleaned away because it is trapped inside the sealed unit.
A correctly measured replacement unit restores a clear view and the intended insulating performance of the glazing. Clear, toughened, obscure and decorative glass options are available, allowing the existing uPVC frame to remain in place wherever it is still serviceable.
MISTED AND FAILED upvc SEALEDUNITS
Condensation between the panes of a uPVC window or door usually means the double-glazed sealed unit has failed. Once the perimeter seal breaks down, moisture can enter the space between the panes, leaving the glass misted, cloudy or permanently marked.
In most cases, the complete PVC window does not need to be replaced. The failed glass unit can be removed and a correctly measured replacement installed while retaining the existing frame, glazing beads and opening sections.
Replacing the failed unit restores a clear view and the intended insulating performance of the glazing. We replace misted units in uPVC windows, entrance doors, French doors, patio doors, top lights and side panels throughout Margate, Ramsgate, Broadstairs and the wider Thanet area.

Cracked or broken glass should be dealt with promptly, particularly when it affects the security or weather resistance of a window or door. Even a small crack can spread, while loose fragments may present a safety risk.
We replace damaged sealed units in PVC windows, entrance doors, French doors, patio doors, top lights and side panels. The existing unit is carefully measured so the replacement glass can be manufactured to the correct size and specification.
Wherever practical, we retain the existing uPVC frame and replace only the affected glass. This is usually a quicker and more affordable option than installing a complete new window or door when the surrounding frame remains serviceable.
Replacing glass in a PVC window or door requires careful removal of the glazing beads and failed sealed unit. Before fitting the replacement glass, the frame, beads, seals and drainage channels should be checked for visible damage.
The new unit must be manufactured to the correct size, thickness and glass specification. It is then positioned using suitable glazing packers before the existing beads are refitted securely around the glass.
This process allows a misted, cracked or damaged unit to be replaced while retaining the surrounding uPVC frame. We reglaze uPVC windows, entrance doors, French doors, patio doors, top lights and side panels throughout Thanet.

FAQ
Do you replace single, double and triple or patterned uPVC glazing?
Yes. We can replace traditional single-glazed panes as well as damaged or failed double-glazed and triple-glazed units, provided the existing window or door is suitable for the replacement glass.
Can you replace misted double-glazed units?
Yes. Misting or condensation between the panes usually means the sealed unit has failed, leaking out all of the internal gas. In many cases, only the glass unit needs replacing rather than the complete window or door.
Do I need a complete new window if the glass is cracked?
Not usually. Where the surrounding timber frame remains in reasonable condition, the damaged pane or unit can often be removed and replaced without changing the complete window.
Can you replace glass in timber sash windows?
Yes. We replace damaged glass in traditional timber sash windows, including single glazing and suitable sealed double-glazed units. The condition of the sash and glazing bars will be checked before the work is carried out.
Do you repair glazing in doors and French doors?
Yes. We can replace glass in timber front doors, internal glazed doors, French doors, top lights and side lights. This includes cracked panes, broken glass and failed sealed units.
Can you provide a quotation from photographs?
Many glazing jobs can be assessed initially from clear photographs. Please include an image of the complete window or door, a close-up of the damaged glass and pictures of the surrounding timber, beads or putty.
Do you provide emergency glazing services?
Availability for urgent glazing work depends on the location, type of glass and whether a replacement pane or sealed unit needs to be made to size. Single glazed windows are instantly available, while other specifications will need to be ordered in. Contact us with photographs and details so we can advise on the available options.
