There are many ways to measure a window, but for quote purposes the easiest way is to measure the daylight opening. You should measure the visible glass that you can see on the window. (width first and height second). The closer your measurement is, the more reliable our quote will be. Once we go forward with the glass repair, we will send someone out to take precise measurements.
Here are a few factors to consider:
Height of the replacement (Higher than ground level)
Accessibility Issues
Grids
Broken Frame
Low-E, etc.
To save time and money, we also offer repairs by appointment if you bring the window into our shop. Same day service may be available. Call ahead.
