Fixing misted or draughty windows in St Albans
If a window in your St Albans home has stopped closing properly or the glass has gone cloudy, it’s usually cheaper to repair than replace. It’s one of the more affluent commuter towns north of London, and homeowners here often want period-accurate replacements rather than the cheapest option. Repairs are usually quicker to book in than a full replacement, which matters if a window won’t lock properly.

Frequently asked questions
My double glazing has gone misty - does that mean I need a full replacement in St Albans? Not necessarily. Misted glass is almost always a failed seal between the panes, which usually means replacing just the glazed unit rather than the whole frame.
How quickly can a window repair be booked in St Albans? Simple repairs like a failed seal, a stiff hinge or a broken handle are usually quicker to schedule than a full replacement, since there’s no manufacturing lead time involved.
What causes draughts around windows that are otherwise in good condition? Usually worn weather seals or a hinge that’s dropped slightly, letting the sash or casement close out of true. It’s a common issue on older frames regardless of location.
