HIGH QUALITY WINDOW
REPAIRS IN WASHINGTON
J.E.D are commited to extending the life of your
existing windows,doors and conservatories by
replacing the worn or damaged components such as
locks handles glass and hinges. When the cost of
replacing these components makes the repair to the
window uneconomical, we can replace the window
with a new up to date window with all the latest
insulation and security benefits.
We are commited to extending the life of your existing windows throughout
Washington.
STEAMY WINDOWS
In the trade we say that the double glazed sealed unit
has 'broken down'. This means that the perimeter edge
seal has lost it's integrity and that it is letting in
moisture somewhere. The moisture itself is hard to
spot at first, sometimes becoming only visible as the
sun or another heat source 'draws' the moisture up.
Typically the moisture will be drawn in as the
atmospheric pressure changes, and it will build up
eventually condensing into water inside the sealed
unit. The double glazed unit can be replaced without
the cost of replacing the frame, and at that stage it is a
good option to upgrade to a high energy glass such as
Pilkington K glass or a gas filled unit which will provide
a higher insulation benefit to the customer.
WINDOW HINGE REPAIR
Both aluminium and PVCu window frames
with opening window sash use stainless steel
friction hinges. These hinges allow the sash to
open to various positions of ventilation.
However due to wear and tear the hinges
become floppy and dont locate correctly,
causing draughts and difficulty when
operating the handle to close the window.
Replacing the hinges will correct the problem.
WINDOW HANDLE REPAIR
Older Aluminium and PVCu windows are often fitted
with "cockspur handles", a simple device with no
concealed workings which lock against a plastic
pressure pad. These were slowly replaced with
"espagnolete handles where the mechanism is
concealed within the edge of the window frame,
providing a number of locking points depending on
the size of window. New handles will not only provide
better security but will also make the window look
more up to date and stylish, available in various
colours and finishes.
WINDOW LOCK REPAIR
The locking of the older "cockspur " handle is
mainly provided by a simple key, however new
handles have a conventional key to lock which
look more stylish and modern. The espagnolete
mechanism is operated by a handle usually
fitted with a push button to lock or unlock,
backed up with a built in key lock for extra
security. However the mechanism which is
concealed within the edge of the frame will
wear with age making locking the window more
difficult or even impossible. We carry these
locking mechanisms in stock and replacement
will return the window to its original condition.
CONDENSATION
Condensation on the room side of a double glazed window is generally caused by poor ventilation which
in turn is an indication that the air in the room has a high moisture content. We all strive to make our
homes better insulated against draughts and because of this our rooms are becoming like sealed boxes,
this in turn means that moist air from cooking, bathing, or just breathing is trapped within the room. The
coldest point in a room will usually be the glass, the moist air will condense onto the glass and we can
plainly see it. We can of course improve this with double glazed units and high energy glass. However if we
do not reduce the amount of moisture in the air, the condensation will manifest itself in other places like
behind wardrobes and cupboards, causing decoration problems. By using a dehumidifier in conjunction
with the double glazing you will reduce the amount of moisture in the room so improving the air quality
and also increase the effectiveness of the double glazing.
