Cracked or damaged glass in windows can lead to several issues within your home. Aside from being an eyesore, cracked windows can affect the temperatures and general comfort of your home or business environment. A small crack, when left unattended, can quickly spread and turn into a larger, more costly issue. This is why it’s important to address cracks early on, no matter the size. If you’re unsure whether or not your window requires a repair, check out the signs below.
Noises & Drafts:
If you’ve noticed that even your closed windows are letting in the outside air and they don’t seem to be keeping out the sound as well, it may be time for a glass replacement. The air that’s being let into your home will cause your HVAC systems to work harder, trying to maintain the set temperature. This can become costly and completely reduces energy efficiency.
Condensation:
Cracks prevent windows from properly keeping out moisture from between panes, which leads to a buildup of condensation. This excessive moisture can cause mold to grow on the window sills.
Curb Appeal:
Whether your home or business has broken windows in view, it reduces the appearance of the structure. Cracked windows often draw the eye in a negative way and can create concern for your visitors or customers. Make a positive impact on your guests and replace the broken and damaged glass.
