What does a window repair service include?

Your window repair person can help with a range of different window types and repair services, including glass window repairs, aluminium window frame repairs, and even car window repairs. They’ll advise you on the best solution (whether repair or replacement) and use their tools to get the job done. Here’s what you can expect from some of the most common window repair services:


Glass window repairs

Your handyman will start by assessing the damage. If the extent of the damage is beyond repair, they’ll recommend a window replacement. But if your window glass only has a small crack, hole, or scratch, they’ll be able to repair it - at least temporarily - to seal your room and prevent the damage from getting worse.  They’ll wear heavy duty gloves before handling any broken glass. Next, they’ll use clear nail-polish to patch up any small holes and scratches, building it up in layers, to discretely repair the glass. If there’s a crack but the window still feels sturdy, your repairer may apply a piece of clear tape over the surface to stop the crack from spreading further. For more advanced repairs, you’ll need to hire a glazier or organise a glass replacement.


Window frame repairs

The most common window frame repairs involve repairing rotten wood frames (since aluminium windows are less prone to damage). Your repairer will start by chipping away most of the rotten wood before covering it with a few layers of liquid epoxy to soak in. Once dry, they’ll mix epoxy filler and use this to fill the gap in your wooden window frame, shaping it to blend in with the rest of the frame. Once this filler is dry, they’ll sand the area smooth. At this point, the repairs are ready for priming and painting.


Window replacement

When your glass windows are beyond repair, they’ll need replacing. Your handyman will start by using the broken window pain. They’ll put on heavy duty gloves and safety glasses before scraping away at the putty or loosening the seal around the broken window pane so they can loosen and remove the old glass (including any shards). They’ll dispose of the old glass and then smooth out the edges of the frame so remove any remaining sealants. Your window replacement technician will measure the window to determine the size of the new glass, leaving a small 3.2mm gap around the edges to allow for expansion. Most of the time, they’ll get the glass cut to size at a local hardware store or glass company. Depending on the type of window frame and how the glass is sealed in, your handyman will then apply putty to the edges of the window, rolling it in their hands to make a long rope, and then sticking it onto the frame. They’ll gently push the new glass into the frame, allowing it to stick to the putty. Your window replacement professional will then apply more putty around the edges on both sides of the glass before gently removing any excess putty and smoothing it over.


Car window repairs

If your car window has a minor hole or crack, your window repairperson may be able to fix it without needing a total replacement. They’ll clean the area to remove debris and use a glass repair kit to seal the broken area with epoxy. The epoxy is applied using a syringe which forces resin into any cracks for a stronger seal.

Install dog door in glass window

$150

Alphington VIC, Australia

29th Apr 2024

Hi, we are looking for someone to install a new dog door into a window pane. See photos for context; there is an old small dog door that needs removing and then the new door fits almost perfectly into the space, but would need a strip of white wood to fill in the space underneath it (approx 3cm) and possibly around the perimeter depending on installation method. Main window dimensions are 39x55cm Thanks for considering, please ask questions as needed. Cheers Sam

Electric louvers removed from roof window

$500

Kensington VIC, Australia

27th Apr 2024

Airtasker has restricted me account due to a previous posting of this job and it being cancelled due to a no show. I’ll reply as soon as the restriction is lifted. Must be licensed electrician. We have a double story end terrace house with skylights at the centre pitch of the roof. They have electric louvres on the outside that no longer function. They need to be disconnected electrically and then removed from the roof. The switches for the motors are inside and not on a seperate fuse so can just be capped where they are. Once that’s done taking the louvers parts off isn’t so hard an I took off one side of the louvers and it just needs the track bars unscrewed from the roof. As I’m not an electrician I can’t disconnect the motors. I’d also like the glass cleaned once it’s all off. Hoping to have it done Tuesday 30th April.

Handyman - reinforce hooks for window display

Collingwood VIC, Australia

26th Apr 2024

URGENT HELP REQUIRED - We need to reinforce or reinstall around 15 hooks urgently (using the fastener style hooks) for displaying a hanging installation for our new store opening tomorrow (Saturday) morning. For one of the installations (see in picture), there are 8 hooks to be used - the current ones are too loose and need to be reinforced using the fastener or cup style hooks, whatever is appropriate. There are 2 other installations that require 4 hooks each (same style) - however those installations are much smaller and lighter than the ones seen in the picture. We need this done urgently (today morning / afternoon) - please contact me asap and I will respond straightaway. Regards, Dushyant
