Most condos have unique rules surrounding their windows. We need you to book the elevator in advance. We require the approval of your property manager. On occasion, we even require proof of your insurance prior to our arrival. We provide window repair service in the Channel District and are familiar with the rules to service your windows.
The Channel District is growing rapidly and is now home to many high-rise towers and apartment buildings. Many of these are located near Sparkman Wharf, the Florida Aquarium and the Garrison Channel. Large windows and sliding glass doors are a feature of many of these buildings and serve to catch the wind off the water.
Condo Window Repair in the Channel District
Windows on high-rise buildings experience much more wind than their lower counterparts. After time, the constant pressure on the seals and hardware can cause them to fail, often causing the sliding sashes to become misaligned. We service windows in the Channel District for repair.
- Sliding windows that stick or will not lock
- Foggy or cracked glass
- Worn rollers and tracks on balcony sliders
- Drafts and whistling around the frame
A whistle in the wind could indicate a worn seal or a panel not closing properly. These type of problems are often easily solved.
These are the signs that your condo window may need some work: the lock is hard to turn, the panel seems to be shaking in the wind, water is accumulating on the sill after a rain, or the glass is becoming cloudy. Any of these signs warrant a phone call.
Working With Your Building
Before we come out, a few steps help the visit go smoothly:
- Check your building rules for contractor hours
- Does the front desk need a certificate of insurance?
- Book the service elevator if needed
- Are the windows for your unit or the HOA?
Some window parts are your responsibility to repair, while others are the responsibility of your condo association. Check your condo documents to find out which is which.
Glass Repair Service in the Channel District
We service cracked glass, failed double-pane units, Low-E glass, and impact glass in the Channel District. Many high-rise buildings in this area already use impact glass. When one panel fails, it must be replaced with glass of similar standards. We service all glass and work with our clients and the buildings they reside in to find the correct glass match.
Screen Repair in the Channel District
Screen doors for balconies and windows frequently tear in high-wind-bearing towers and homes. Channel District Screen Repair fixes torn mesh, bent frames and slider track jumping screen doors.
Window Repair FAQs for the Channel District
Can I fix my condo window without the HOA?
It depends on the building you live in. Check your condo documents with your building or ask your property manager for more information.
Do you work with property managers?
Yes, it’s fine to look at several units during a single visit and have a single estimate prepared for you.
Why does water come in when rain blows sideways?
Tower windows collect rain from the sides as well as from above. If there is water dripping down from the bottom of a frame, worn seals and clogged up weep holes are most often the cause. Clean out the weep holes and reseal the frame.
