DOUBLE GLAZING REPAIRS

 

Most of GBM’s work is now in this field. Many companies that say they carry out repairs are likely to condemn your Doors Windows, Locks etc telling you parts are obsolete and are really interested in selling you new Double Glazing.

 

GBM do not install Double Glazing we only repair, so if it can be repaired we will do so, we will not be trying to sell you new.

 

The most common problems are misted (broken down) sealed units.

These cannot be repaired but can be replaced. We would have to visit and measure up size make up etc and issue you with a free quote.

 

Windows not closing properly is another common problem normally due to broken or worn Friction hinges. We carry a stock of standard hinges and in most cases could carry out repairs on the first visit.

 

GBM carry a large stock of the more common Hinges, Locks etc but there are so many it would be impossible to carry them all. However any type of Lock, mechanism etc if it is still available GBM will find it or replace with similar.

 

Listed below are just some of the Double Glazing areas we cover

 

Sealed Units – All types of units available. Any type of patterned Glass. If a special design is required etched onto the Glass this service is also available. This is carried out by sandblasting or acid etching. So if you have your own design in mind give us a call.

 

Hinges – Friction hinges ,these are the scissor like hinges you find on most double glazed windows. When broken or worn window will not pull in tight to frame therefore water ingress or draughts can occur.

If your door has dropped it is not nessessarily a case of new hinges.
