Restore Your View & Energy Efficiency Without Changing the Frames
Do you have a window with a crack, a shattered pane, or condensation that won't wipe off? You don't need to rip out the entire window frame to fix it. In Mississauga, where homes endure freeze-thaw cycles and high winds, glass failure is common—but full replacement is often unnecessary. Installix specializes in glass-only replacement, restoring your window's thermal performance and clarity for a fraction of the cost of a full renovation.
The Problem: Why Windows Fail in Ontario
Foggy Seals and Thermal Failure
The most common issue we see in Mississauga homes is "foggy glass." This occurs when the seal on your Insulated Glass Unit (IGU) fails, allowing moisture to enter the space between the panes. Once inside, the moisture condenses, creating a permanent haze that ruins your view and destroys the window's R-value.
Physical Damage and Stress Cracks
Thermal stress cracks can appear suddenly during extreme temperature shifts (like a hot sunny day following a cold night). Accidental impact from landscaping or sports can also shatter the outer pane.
The Risk of Inaction
Ignoring failed seals leads to higher heating bills as your home loses heat. Broken glass poses an immediate security risk and can allow water infiltration, leading to mold growth on your window sills and drywall.
The Solution: Precision Glass-Only Replacement
We carefully remove the damaged glass unit from your existing Vinyl, Wood, or Aluminum sash and replace it with a factory-sealed, high-performance thermal unit. We do not disturb your siding, trim, or interior casing.

Our Process: From Measurement to Install
Step 1: Diagnostics & Measurement
We visit your home to identify the cause of failure. We use precision tools to measure the height, width, and thickness of the sealed unit to the millimeter.
Step 2: Fabrication
Your glass is custom-manufactured at a local facility. This ensures fresh seals and quick turnaround times (typically 5-10 business days).
Step 3: Installation & Verification
On installation day, we protect your floors. We remove the old glass, clean the glazing pocket, install the new unit with fresh setting blocks and glazing tape, and seal it watertight. We haul away all old glass.
Understanding the Cost
The price of your project depends on several variables:
- Size & Thickness: Larger windows and thicker glass packages cost more.
- Access: Second-story windows requiring ladders or scaffolding may incur labor premiums.
- Specification: Triple pane and tempered glass are upgrades over standard double pane.
Value Anchor: Glass replacement is typically 50-70% cheaper than full-frame window replacement.
