How To
How do I replace a cracked window?
The most common home improvement task is to replace broken windows. This task involves repairing any damage to your glass. Repairs should take about 30 minutes in this situation. But if you do not know how to replace a broken pane of glass, then you risk causing further damage to the house. This article provides tips for how to replace broken windows.
First step: Take the glass out of its frame
First, remove all screws that hold the glass in place. Next, undo the lock in the middle of the bottom section. Next, move the window up slightly to remove it from the sill plate (the bar that runs below the floor). Next, remove any remaining screws using a pry instrument until they are loosen. Clean the panes thoroughly after they are taken out.
Second step: Clean the new glass
Use a dry cloth or paper towel to wipe away any dirt from the surface of the glass. You can clean the glass with a spray bottle containing water and rubbing alcohol if there is any debris underneath.
Third Step: Reinstall the replacement glass
Attach the window frames to the panes. With the tip of a screwdriver, push down on the bottom edge of the outermost window pane. Gently push down on the lower edge of the outermost pane with the tip of a screwdriver. Move on to the next piece of pane. Push it into the opening in the frame. Continue to insert the panes until you have assembled the whole window. Seal the area where the panes meet with silicone caulk gun.
Fourth Step: Repair the area damaged
If you are installing new glass, be sure to inspect the area where the break occurred. This will help determine if further repairs are necessary. Two small pieces of wood should be placed along the edges of each hole if the crack is near the corner. These wooden blocks will provide strength for the window, as well as acting as spacers during the expansion or contraction of the weatherproofing.
Fifth step: Seal the repaired area
After the glass is replaced, apply silicone caulking to all edges of your window frame. This will seal the glass to the wallboard. Silicone caulking can be purchased at hardware stores and online. Choose a color that matches your walls.
Allow the caulking to cure overnight. You should not disturb the caulking after it has fully hardened. If you don't wait long enough, you could cause the caulking to crack when you remove it.
