Replacement Glass Units Window Doctor Leicester can provide replacement units for customers with misty windows. The most common reason for misted windows is a weakening seal that allows water vapor to escape from bathrooms and kitchens into the gap between panes.

We can repair the damaged unit or upgrade to new glass with an A rating to increase efficiency and reduce heat getting through your windows and doors.

It could also result in higher energy bills because you'll be paying to heat a space that isn't as protected as it could be.
