Complete Wood Window Repair and Glass Replacement Services in Glen Ellyn, IL

Window Sill Repair and Replacement

Peeling paint, cracks, and soft wood at the bottom of a window can signal a sill problem. Arax checks sill boards that have cracked or warped in Glen Ellyn older homes and renovated houses, removes deteriorated material where needed, and installs a properly fitted replacement sill when repairs will not hold.

Window Sash Repair and Replacement

Broken sash components do not always mean the whole window must be replaced. We look for failed joints, deteriorated rails, and alignment issues in Glen Ellyn windows, then repair the sash or replace that assembly if it cannot be restored reliably.

Foggy Window Repair

If wiping the glass does nothing to remove the haze, the moisture may be inside the sealed unit. Arax checks the condition of the glazing and may use defogging methods when appropriate; otherwise, we can replace the failed insulated unit. That distinction matters for older homes, condominiums, and retail spaces, where the installation and hardware can vary from one opening to another.

Broken Glass Window Repair

Broken window glass leaves sharp edges and can make the opening difficult to secure. Arax clears the damaged glass, examines the sash and surrounding frame, then installs an appropriate replacement pane. With wood window components and insulated glass, we look for the specific failed part before deciding what to change.

Window Balance Repair

A sticking double-hung window is not always caused by paint or a warped frame. Our inspection includes the balances and sash movement, followed by repair of the faulty component where practical. For Glen Ellyn properties, we examine the condition of the existing wood window components and insulated glass before suggesting unnecessary replacement. This is especially useful where older homes, condominiums, and retail spaces have different window and door designs.

Casement Window Crank Repair

A stripped crank or jammed casement can leave a window partly open. We examine the operating mechanism alongside the hinges and locking points, then replace or adjust the failed hardware. The repair is planned around the type of opening, whether it is in older homes, condominiums, and retail spaces.

Window Hardware Repair

Window hardware sometimes breaks before the frame or glass shows any problem. We service hinges, locking parts, handles, and operators and correct alignment issues that prevent them from working properly. Our assessment in Glen Ellyn takes the window construction and the condition of nearby parts into account.

Window Screen Repair & Replacement

Rips in the mesh let insects inside, while bent frames can leave gaps around the screen. Arax rescreens usable frames and replaces damaged or missing screens to match the window opening. That distinction matters for older homes, condominiums, and retail spaces, where the installation and hardware can vary from one opening to another.

Patio Door Repair

Sticking and drafty patio doors do not always need replacement. Our repair work may include hardware adjustments, roller replacement, track service, seals, or a new glass unit. With wood window components and insulated glass, we look for the specific failed part before deciding what to change. This is especially useful where older homes, condominiums, and retail spaces have different window and door designs.

Sliding Glass Door Repair

Grinding noises and uneven sliding often start at the track or wheel assemblies. Arax checks the moving panel and frame, then repairs rollers, tracking, seals, hardware, or glass as needed. For Glen Ellyn properties, we examine the condition of the existing wood window components and insulated glass before suggesting unnecessary replacement.

Skylight Repair

Skylight leaks can originate around the frame or flashing rather than through the glass. We examine the entire opening and address repairable joints, seals, flashing details, or damaged glazing. The repair is planned around the type of opening, whether it is in older homes, condominiums, and retail spaces.

Storefront and Commercial Glass Repair

Commercial properties need windows and doors that are safe and functional. Arax replaces storefront and office glass, addresses failed insulated units, and services frames, door hardware, and operating parts while retaining usable framing when possible. Our assessment in Glen Ellyn takes the window construction and the condition of nearby parts into account. We assess each opening rather than assume the same parts fit every window in Glen Ellyn.
