Top Window Repair related questions

Start by making sure there is no loose glass that could injure family members or pets. If you have a crack in your window and are concerned about wind/rain getting inside, you could place thick tape over the surface to provide a temporary seal.

Common window breakages include cracks, chips, holes, and scratches.
If the tenant caused the window to break through malicious activity or negligence, they’ll need to organise window repairs and pay for them. But if damage has happened due to the property ageing or something else out of the tenant’s control, it’s up to the landlord to pay for the repair.

You don’t need to purchase anything for your window repair unless instructed to by your handyman. They may bring their own equipment and supplies, and will advise you during the service if any parts are needed.

This depends on the size and location of the window. For basic window replacements at ground floor level, this could take as little as 1 hour. 

Window repairs usually cost between $80-$235 when you book your service through Airtasker. But the total cost for your service will depend on the type of window, type of repair, the location of the window, and how long it’ll take to get the job done.

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.

Remove old and Install new woodworkers window hood x 2

$450

Paddington QLD, Australia

22nd Apr 2024

Remove two metal hoods and install two new metal window hoods from Woodworkers. It's a one piece of metal hood that includes the flashing which needs to be placed under weatherboard walls and then screwed in with the right accessories to ensure longevity. Size: 95cm width Please note that you'll need your bring any necessary tools and joining accessories (screws and etc) as the hoods are being delivered without any accessories. - Please only quote if you have %100 confidence. - Access is easy, ground level. Woodworks generic explanation for install- Colorbond hoods can only be connected by pop rivet joints Metal hoods should clear the external jambs of joinery by approximately 30mm and are usually simply screwed directly to the chamferboards with dome head screws & nylon washers to ensure electrolytic compatibility with the hood metal. Remember water cannot flow over zincalume onto galvanised fixings. Because metal hoods are so light they can easily be installed by two people in a fully assembled state. The metal hood needs to be positioned to avoid interference with the window opening (especially with casements) and ensure pedestrian traffic cannot collide with the hood. Ensuring the hood and window are parallel, the top flange of the hood is usually slipped under the chamferboard or weatherboard overlap and the sides are screwed down with to 4 screws each side. 100) AA •
