About the Service

Window Repair, Done Right

Common window repairs include replacing balances and cords, fixing broken locks and cranks, repairing sashes, replacing cracked glass, re-glazing and adjusting frames that have shifted.

We look at the condition of the whole window: if the frame is sound and parts are available, repair can be an excellent value. If the frame is rotted or the window is beyond economical repair, we explain your replacement options.

Music City Door & Window Services brings window repair to homes in Nashville and across 20 Middle Tennessee cities.

Questions About Window Repair

Still have a question?

Call 615-357-7797

Should I repair or replace my windows?

If the frame is sound and the problem is a part, repair is often a good value. If the frame is rotted or the window is very old and inefficient, replacement may be better.

Can you repair old wood windows?

Often yes, and many are worth keeping. We tell you honestly what is possible.

Can you fix a window that will not stay open?

Usually, by replacing the balance or adjusting the sash.
