Foggy Window Repair near Chicago, IL

Windows allow us to look outside from the comfort of our homes and let natural light in to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. When windows become foggy, it reduces the natural light coming into the home and blurs the view to the outside. Window fogging typically happens due to moisture buildup between glass panes which is a sign of poor sealing and insulation. Fortunately, fogging is something that can be repaired to clear up the glass. At Arax Windows Work, we provide foggy window repair to clear up affected windows in the Chicago, IL area. Our professionals will diagnose the cause of the fogginess and fix the issue using advanced repair and restoration techniques. You can expect clearer windows and better insulation from our foggy glass repair.

Our professionals at Arax Windows Work can clear up your windows with our foggy glass repair services. We will first determine what is causing your windows to get foggy and whether the problem requires a simple repair or replacement of the glass. If the problem is caused by broken seals or damage to the window frame or sash, we can repair the seals, sash, or frame to prevent condensation from forming within the panes. If the condensation has led to mold growth between the panes, the glass will need to be replaced.

What Causes Foggy Windows?

Fogginess is a problem that typically effects double pane and insulated glass windows.  These windows become foggy when the airtight seal between the windowpanes weakens and allows condensation to accumulate between the panes.  The condensation not only fogs the window, but can also cause mold growth which can further damage the glass, window sill, and other surrounding materials. 

Deterioration of the seal is one of the main causes of window fogging.  Seals may degrade over time, but they can also be affected by expanding and contracting of the glass due to extreme temperature changes which can put stress on the seals.  Poor installation and manufacturing issues with the glass or window frame can also cause the seals to wear down.  Cracks in the glass are another potential cause of foggy windows as moisture can get between the panes through the crack.

If you have foggy windows in your home from condensation, they should be repaired right away to avoid mold growth and other issues.

We can provide the following to restore foggy windows:

  • Glass replacement: If the glass is affected by mold growth or the insulating gas layer has been compromised, it is best to replace the glass. We provide expert window glass replacement that includes removing the damaged glass and installing the new glass within the sash and frame.
  • Rotted wood frame repair: Condensation within the windowpanes could be a sign of rotting wooden frames or window sills. We can repair or replace rotting wooden window sills and frames to better protect the glass from condensation.
  • Seal repair: We can repair poor or damaged seals to stop moisture from getting between the panes.
  • Repair of the frame and sash: Damage to the frame or sash can compromise the seal and allow moisture to get between the panes. We can repair or replace the damaged parts of the frame or sash and reseal the glass.

"We were told by four other companies that we needed to replace our windows. Arax came in and repaired 10 Andersen windows - mostly realigned them so they would open/close correctly and did it for a fraction of the cost of the others that tried and couldnt repair anything."
