    3 Steps to Perfect Fog Free Windows. Drill, Clean & Install Vents

    Here is the 3 step process we take to repairing windows:

    Prevention: How to Prevent Double-Pane Window Condensation?

    Maintenance is the key. We know it may sound biased to say but many of our recurring window cleaning clients rarely have issues with their windows. We believe that maintaining and cleaning your windows rejuvenate the seals and they are less prone to cracking and eventually breaking. Windows that have not been cleaned in long periods of time build up dirt, algae and sand in the tracks and in the frame, those contaminants can clog the drains in the window frame and can cause moisture to stand for long periods of time.  Obviously it is a case by case basis and some have manufacturing defects. 

    Cost To Replace vs Repair Windows in Los Angeles

    Replacing windows, you can expect to pay an average of $300-$700 per window, and it can range from $3,000-$10,000 for a one-story, three-bedroom home with 10 windows. Larger, two-story homes with more windows can possibly run $10,000-$20,000.  (not including any Stucco patching, color match painting, siding repairs, interior molding replacement and any other work that needs to be done)

The service is considerably quick, we do not remove the window everything is done on site and there is no costly touch ups after. 

    Why Thermal Dual Pane Windows Fail & Condense?

    Dual Pane Windows are normally exposed to high temperatures in our So-Cal Summer months and cold conditions in the Winter, the external temperature has an impact on the double glazing.

    The high Summer temperatures causes the air trapped between the two panes of glass to expand causing the center of the unit to swell like a balloon, as the temperature drops the air contracts and the unit goes into negative deflection causing the glass to contract in the middle.

    This constant expansion and contraction is called solar pumping, the stress this causes on the perimeter seal eventually causes the seal to fail.

    Other causes of Window seal failure are:
    Incorrect fitting
    Poor manufacturing
    Holes in the seals
    Poor transportation
    Poor framework maintenance
    Failed or blocked drainage system

    How Re-engineering Works?

    To remove the condensation from a dual pane window or to prevent the window from fogging, the window needs to basically be re-engineered, the transformation from a hermetically sealed unit to a pressure equalized window is not that difficult.

    We refer to the window as hermetically sealed (Argon gas tight) however, if you are reading this it is likely that you have condensation, fog or haze in your windows, this means the seal has failed and the unit is no longer air tight, we call these windows “Blown” and most people will simply replace the unit with another, the replacement solves the problem of condensation that’s for sure. However it is only a short-term fix and the problem will return when the new units seal fails.

    Re-engineering the failed window solves the problem, it is cheaper than replacing the whole window, last longer than replacements and what’s more is the most environmentally friendly option (most failed windows go straight to landfills).

    The re-engineered windows have the same thermal performance as a standard air-filled windows, air will escape from the unit when the temperature rises and air will be allowed to re-enter the windows when the temperature drops.

    Our Customer Reviews

    I called Curb Appeal to schedule service for our gutters to be cleared. They responded promptly and scheduled me in. Due to some upcoming rains, they moved me up to get the job done before then, which was really appreciated. The crew was prompt and efficient and all communication was very easy. I highly recommend Curb Appeal for any of the services they provide.

    From start to finish Curb Appeal Power Clean was a delight to work with. Mike made it very easy to get a quote and schedule. Robert and his partner showed up promptly, did an amazing job power washing my front deck, driveway and retaining wall and cleaning the gutters. Robert took the time to take photos of my neighbor's tree what was growing into my gutters and explained what i need to have done. Everything is sparkling clean and with as little stress and hassle as possible. Everyone was incredibly nice, I would highly recommend them and will be calling them again when things get dirty, as they always do.

    In the midst of historical storms and what has surely got to be a busy time for this company, Curb Appeal scheduled us for service within a couple of days. On the day of service, the two men who arrived promptly were very professional and commenced to do a thorough job cleaning out our pine needle packed gutters. It gives us confidence that clean gutters will help to keep the next storm's rains out of the house and into the drains!
