A broken window seal can lead to condensation between panes, reducing the window’s efficiency. While some homeowners may consider DIY repairs, it’s important to understand when you can fix a seal yourself and when to call in professionals like Argo Window Repair.

Identifying a Failed Seal

• Visual Inspection: Look for condensation between the glass panes that doesn’t wipe away.
• Draft Test: Feel around the window edges for drafts indicating air leakage.

DIY Seal Repair: Pros and Cons

• Temporary Fixes: Small breaches might be patched with sealant, offering a temporary solution.
• Limitations: DIY methods rarely restore the original thermal efficiency and often don’t last, leading to potential mold or further damage.

Professional Seal Repair
