Windows Winnipeg — Glass Repair

Why it matters

Just the glass, not the window

A cracked pane or a broken sealed unit usually does not mean you need a whole new window. In most cases the frame and sash are perfectly sound and only the glass has to go, so we measure the opening, order glass to match your window type and glazing, and replace just the pane or the sealed unit — keeping your existing frame and saving you the cost of a full window.

That applies to a single cracked lite, a shattered pane after an impact, or a failed insulated unit — the fix is the glass, not the frame.

If your window is fogged rather than cracked, that is a specific version of the same idea — see sealed-unit repair for the details.

How it works

From free estimate to installed — in four simple steps

  1. Book the estimate

    Call, text or use the form. We book a free in-home visit — no obligation, no high-pressure sales table.

  2. On-site measure

    We measure every opening, check the frames and sills for rot or water damage, and walk through material, style and glass options in plain language.

  3. Written quote

    Line-item quote with the window line, glass package, U-factor, warranty and haul-away on one page. Financing attached when you want it.

  4. Install, cleanly

    Drop cloths, boot covers and a full air-seal on every unit. Old windows hauled away and a walkthrough of your new windows plus warranty registration.

What you get

Matched, sealed, warrantied

We source glass to match your window's type and glazing — clear, tempered, Low-E, obscure or triple-pane — so the repaired pane performs and looks like the rest, then seal it in properly against water and air. A glass repair should be invisible once it is done, and that is the standard we work to.

Everything is measured and quoted up front so there are no surprises, and the work is backed by warranty.

Common questions

Glass Repair questions answered

Glass-only fixes, timing and what happens if the frame is damaged.

In most cases, yes — we replace the damaged pane or sealed unit and keep your existing frame and sash, which costs far less than a new window. As long as the frame is sound, there is no reason to replace the whole thing over broken or cracked glass. We match the new glass to your window's type and glazing so it performs and looks right, and seal it in properly. The main exceptions are a frame that is also damaged or a specialty glass that is hard to source, and we will tell you up front if either applies.
It is a two-step job: we measure first, order the matching glass, and then install it once it arrives, so the total time depends on the glass type and size. Standard clear or tempered glass in a common size comes in quickly; Low-E, triple-pane, obscure or oversized units take a bit longer to source. If the break is a security or weather risk in the meantime, we can board up the opening first to keep your home safe and dry, then complete the glass install when the unit is ready. We give you the timeline at the quote.
Then we will show you the repair-versus-replace numbers so you can decide with the full picture. If the frame or sash is rotted, warped or broken, replacing only the glass would leave the real problem in place, so in that case a new window is often the better spend. But if the frame is fundamentally sound and just needs minor attention, we can sometimes address both. We assess the whole window, not just the glass, before quoting, and we will be straight about which path actually makes sense for yours.
Yes — we source clear, tempered, Low-E, obscure and other specialty glass to match your window, including safety glass where code requires it.
If the break is a security or weather risk, yes — we can board it up first to keep the home safe and dry until the glass arrives.

Cracked pane from a stray ball. They matched the glass to the rest and you cannot tell it was ever broken.
