Gosh this is so simple and fast, I was really worried replacing the window would be a huge project. I feel really confident now, thank you!
Glad this video was helpful!
Thanks for the video. I’m going to try this to change the glass in an old transom window above a front door
Hey bud, you the man. I got this stupid city inspector giving me a hard time because I changed the glass I didn’t sealed it properly. Will do trick Installtion. Came out good.
Thanks. Glad I was able to help!

CAUTION old window putty often contains asbestos. I didn't know this and have DIY removed and replaced window putty from several windows in my home. I am sending off a sample for testing. There are so many videos like this which don't even mention the risk I had no idea. I used a heat gun to remove the putty while shielding the glass which I hope removed less fibres than chipping it out but I really regret touching it at all now. I should have just had them replaced 😕
You absolutely right, some very old putty contains asbestos in it and also old led paint.
I would not worry about it if you only did one or two windows. I probably done over a thousand of these in my 15 year glass career, so far so good. By the way all new windows we install here ( in California) all come with a warning sticker about cancer, so is caulking we use to seal them even screw packages have cancer warning on them.
Thanks its very useful for me and save a lot money
Glad I was able to help!
Nicely explained 👌
Thanks!
Right on you explain the way has to be installed the window thank you
Thanks!
Best building
On time for me. Thanks.
Glad I was able to help!
Very helpful. Very informative.
Thank you
Ok you made that look way to easy I’m sure that’s not the case good job
It’s not too hard too do, just may take some time if you do it for the first time.
Good video mate except for the putty you used. I find SarcoSeal dual glazing is much better than DAP.
Thanks. I have only used DAP putty as it’s widely available here and that’s what the company I work for use. But will definitely check out sarcoSeal.
Thank you.
You are welcome!
Thank you for this!
You are welcome!

This is awesome! Thank you!
Glad I was able to help!
Thank you my dog just broke our window and it really helps the bad thing is that I cut my whole arm with the glass 😖
Sorry to hear that you cut your arm,. But if you are going to replace it the glass I would recommend ordering tempered glass as it is a lot stronger, harder to breaks and a lot safer when it does break.
Road Glass and more yeah we might use that since he is really strong so he wount knock it down anymore
Thanks, I was dreading doing this and now I think I'll be able to do it. One question, I noticed the last time a guy fixed my window, he these metal clips that the window has around it, is it necessary to add these on or will the clear silicon you use be enough.
So the clips are meant to hold the glass in place until putty drys, if I’m replacing huge pieces of glass I sometimes use those clips!
Silicone will start to cure and setting in pretty quick within an hour or two, so just make sure don’t push on the glass very hard.
Good job...
Thank you!
I'm wondering if I can replace glass with cardboard? I see a lot of people do amazing things but cant find info to replace broken glass panels on internal doors. Thx for video
Most (not all) Interior doors have small wood stops that are nailed in on one side.
Thx
You are welcome, always glad to help.
Is vinyl gloves works too?I had a box don't want to waste..🤣
Yes, they will work. I use gloves so the glazing putty don’t stick to my fingers and hands
@@roadglassandmore9064 thank you thank you!~
Was this repair done from inside or outside the window? Can it be done from inside the building for a broken window on the second floor?
It was done from outside.
And I think all the older windows have putty on the outside, so the only way to do it is from outside.
What kind of glass is that? Tempered? Anealed?
Local hardware stores don't have anything except the thinnest single pane you ever saw.
That glass is annealed ( only glass in doors, showers, writhing 36” of the showers within 24” of any door or within 18” of the floor requires to be tempered) the glass in the video is 3/16” obscured the pattern called quatex.
Try going to local glass shop/supplier they will be able to cut you almost any piece of glass.
@@roadglassandmore9064 oh man. You're the best. Thank you for your reply!!
Where can I buy the glass only ??
Local glass shop/supplier. I even seen some Home Depot and Lowe’s sell single pane glass.
@@roadglassandmore9064 how much are they is this expensive too put?
What are the wages that only glass installers get?
Wages?, pay? It all depends on your location, experience and place of work , private residential shops pay $16-40/hr , union shops pay up to $64/hr.
@@roadglassandmore9064Which country are you from ? What do you mean by residential stores?? I am from an Arab country. My work depends on cutting glass and installing it in residential buildings only. I would like a more detailed explanation, because I simply want to live abroad. Please respond, please
Can you buy colored putty
There are only white ( for all applications), and you can also buy grey ( only used on metal window frames)
So white and grey as far as I know.
Where can I get window glass for a good price?
Local glass shop, even some Lowe’s stores can cut you a price of glass.
@@roadglassandmore9064 thank you 😊
I broke a window with a bb gun
That happens!
