Emergency repair of window frames
Glass broken after a break-in or an impact, a jammed window, a forced lock, water getting in: you don’t plan an emergency, you secure it fast. Our teams respond as a priority to put your window frame out of danger, then bring the sash back into working order. All brands.
When a window frame puts your home at risk
A window that no longer closes or broken glazing is an open door to the cold, the water and intrusion. Here are the situations we respond to as a priority.
Broken glazing or glass breakage
Glass cracked, shattered or fallen after an impact, a storm or an act of vandalism. We remove the dangerous glass and board up the opening while waiting for the final glazing.
Securing after a break-in
Forced frame, torn-out outer frame, smashed glazing: we secure the access immediately so your home doesn’t stay vulnerable one more night.
Window jammed open or shut
A sash stuck and impossible to close (home exposed) or to open (room sealed off): we free the mechanism and restore proper operation.
Lock or espagnolette out of order
A handle that turns in the void, a broken locking point, a seized espagnolette: we replace or repair the hardware to lock the window frame again.
Sudden water leak
A burst seal, glazing come unsealed, run-off in rainy weather: we stop the water from getting in and protect the inside while waiting for a lasting repair.
Jammed roller shutter
A stuck curtain, a slat off its track, a shutter stuck in the open or closed position: we free it to restore the blackout and the security.
From your call to the final repair
-
Call & description
You describe the situation to us over the phone; we assess the urgency, confirm the type of window frame and schedule the visit as soon as possible.
-
Immediate securing
On site, the priority is to secure: boarding up the opening, blocking the sash, temporary replacement of the locking. Your home is closed up again.
-
Repair quote
Once the danger is gone, we take a precise survey of what needs repairing or replacing and hand you a clear quote, with no commitment.
-
Final repair
New glazing, original hardware, seals, adjustments: we restore the tightness, the insulation and the security of the window frame by the book.
Don’t leave your home exposed. We’ll call you back fast to organise the securing.
Emergency window repair
Do you come out the same day?
For situations that expose your home — broken glazing, a window impossible to close, the aftermath of a break-in — we do our utmost to come out the same day across Wallonia and Brussels. Over the phone, we prioritise according to the real urgency and the availability of the nearest team.
What should I do in case of a break-in at night?
Get yourself to safety, alert the police and take photos for your insurance. From the morning (or in the evening depending on the case), we secure the forced window frame: boarding up, blocking the sash and restoring the locking. The final repair of the glazing and hardware then follows on quote.
Do you secure before drawing up the quote?
Yes, always. Securing comes first: we make your home closed up and out of danger, then calmly survey what needs repairing or replacing to hand you a detailed quote. You decide what happens next, no pressure.
How much does securing cost?
A securing call-out (travel, boarding up or temporary blocking) starts from a flat fee announced before the visit. The final repair — glazing, lock, seals — is the subject of a separate quote, validated by you. In renovation, the reduced VAT may apply to the labour.
Call us without waiting if…
A single one of these cases puts your home at risk: securing cannot be put off.
- A pane is broken, cracked or fallen and leaves an opening
- Your window frame was forced during an attempted break-in
- A window refuses to close and your home stays open
- A window is jammed shut and seals off a room or an exit
- The lock or espagnolette no longer locks the window frame
- Water is actively leaking through the window frame when it rains
- A roller shutter is jammed and no longer provides the blackout
- An outer frame or a sash threatens to come away
