Foggy Windows?

Posted to Jeremy Page

One question I get often from buyers who are looking at homes is, why do some of the windows look foggy? This is often noticeable during the winter times. Typically, the fog is due to a broken window seal. This is when the seal between glass panes has a leak and does not keep it air tight. You used to have to replace the window when this became a problem. Now you are able to have a company out to just replace the seal and clean the windows to make them look new again. The bigger issue isn’t the foggy look but the loss of efficiency. The space in between the panes are meant to increase the efficiency and this is lost once the seal is compromised.

When thinking about selling your house some items like this might need to be addressed. Repairs to a house prior to selling it might greatly help in the time on market. However, it is important to keep in mind that you should talk to a real estate professional such as myself prior to making any expensive repairs. It can be easy to spend too much money making repairs that will not bring any money back to you in the sale. Are you in need of someone to fix your windows? How about any other repairs on your house? If so give me a call/text at 317-413-5311 or email me at
