Misted Double Galzed Window Pane

[josadler7]

Hi
I'm in the process of selling my parents house and unfortunately one of the french window double glased panes became misted after recent cold weather and now has ~1 inch of water in the cavity. The frame is wood and the pane is ~12" x 18" (one of 8 - other all ok) should I replace it before the survey, if so how is it best done and where can you buy replacements?
Thank you
J

You can get replacement units made to any reasonable size. Most glaziers, will get it made for you even if they can't do it themselves. Where approximately do you live?

Hi jomifl - the house is in the Cotswolds, near Cheltenham. Roughly how much do they cost? Thanks

Replace before survey if you can. Don't give surveyors any excuse for a downer ;o)

Easy to replace yourself if you like. The unit should be around the £50 mark including VAT. Because it's a door, the unit would have to be of toughened glass. That makes it more expensive than "fixed" units.

If Glaziers fit it, that cost would mostly be reflected in their travelling time.

check its not cracked and if it is you may have a claim on the home insurance
