Signs Your Double Glazing Needs Repairing
Many double glazing problems are easy to fix if caught early — and much cheaper than leaving them to worsen. Watch out for these common warning signs:
- Misting or condensation between the panes — a clear sign the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing.
- Draughts from closed windows — failed seals or a distorted frame letting cold air in, raising your energy bills.
- Windows that are difficult to open, close, or lock — usually a hinge, handle, or alignment issue that can be fixed quickly.
- Visible cracks, chips, or damage to the glass — a security risk that needs addressing promptly.
- Rattling in the wind — often caused by worn weather seals or loose glazing beads.
- Cold spots near windows — a sign the thermal performance of the double glazing has broken down.
If you’ve noticed any of these signs, don’t wait — get in touch today for a free, no-obligation assessment.
Is It Better to Repair or Replace Double Glazing?
This is the most common question we get asked. The honest answer is: repair is almost always the better option if the frame is still in good condition. Replacing the sealed glass unit — rather than the entire window — costs a fraction of the price and can be done in a matter of hours. We only recommend full replacement when the frame itself is beyond repair, severely damaged, or when energy efficiency improvements justify the upgrade.
We’ll always give you a straight, honest recommendation. If a repair will do the job, that’s what we’ll tell you — even if replacement would earn us more. That’s why Medway homeowners have been trusting us for over 20 years.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does double glazing repair cost in Medway?
The cost depends on the type of repair needed. Replacing a failed misted unit typically starts from around £80–£150 per pane, while handle, hinge, or lock repairs are often less. A full window replacement costs more but is still significantly cheaper than having it done through a large national glazing company. We always provide a free, no-obligation quote before starting any work.
Can misted double glazing be repaired without replacing the whole window?
Yes — in most cases, only the glass unit needs replacing, not the entire frame. We remove the failed sealed unit and fit a new one into your existing uPVC or timber frame. This is quicker, less disruptive, and significantly cheaper than a full window replacement. As long as the frame is in good condition, unit replacement is almost always the right call.
How quickly can you repair double glazing in Medway?
Most repairs are completed in a single visit. Handles, hinges, and seals are typically fixed on the day we attend. Misted unit replacements require us to order the new sealed unit first, which usually takes 3–7 working days, and then we’ll return to fit it. We aim to be as fast as possible — we know a draughty or broken window isn’t something you want to wait around for.
Do I need planning permission to repair or replace double glazing in Medway?
For most domestic properties, no planning permission is needed to repair or replace double glazing like-for-like. However, if your home is a listed building or in a conservation area, additional consent may be required. Because we’re Certass certified, our replacement installations are self-certified as compliant with building regulations — saving you the hassle of notifying your local authority separately. We’ll always advise you if we spot any potential issues.
Are Kent Window Wizard Certass certified?
Yes. Kent Window Wizard is a fully registered Certass certified installer. You can verify our certification here. This means every window replacement we carry out meets current building regulations, and you receive the relevant compliance certificate automatically — no need for you to make a separate building control application.
