Screens for caradco windows

Should I just get new glass for the cracked ones? Does this plastic pully system identify their age? Hi Melissa, It seems to be a little known fact that the glass can easily be replaced in most windows.

Completely replacing your windows is totally un-necessary if you just need the glass replaced. In fact, any local glass company can mostly likely do that for you. I would Google glass repair and replacement companies in your area and see what they can do for you. Your email is kept private.

Do you offer an option to purchase only the bottom rail vs.

Do you recommend i reuse the original boot or discard and use a wet glaze instead? A cladded unit measures even numbers to the half inch from the exterior side as we request. More importantly to your other questions.

The glazing boot was the engineering failure to begin with and the main cause for the wood rot. Why re-use the original failure to guarantee the same end result?

Thank you. The casing must b removed TRIM and they should b reshimmed and problem solved. You can order them from the site. Same here!! We built our house 20 years ago and upgraded to Cradco windows from what our builder had spec fir us. Year 2 we started having fogging issues and rotten wood on outside of windows.

Just kept ignoring our calls. We were told that cradco window company went out of business and our run of windows were defective. We replaced most of our windows glass inserts maybe around year 5. I definitely need 11 replaced probably a few more , 3 are very large picture windows in 2 story great room. Not sure what to do.

Do i replace all the windows with aluminum clad and have outside trim wrapped in aluninium? Hate to go back to wood windows. If i do not replace all windows, then they will not match. They are Crapy windows!! Frustrated in Birmingham.

I would like to know if Jey weld will honour the cradco guarantee. I had a new house built in , using Wenco windsows. Jeld- Wen had bought Wenco when I first began having problems in They did repair several windows inside. I had a big problem over two months ago with two windows losing springs and the windows came down at least one inch.

A contractor and I have tried getting the parts for over two months. I have four rotting windows outside of an attached room. I planned to live here forever. This was a very expensive house to purchase. A law suit should be filed because of this window problem. I have lived in three houses. This is the only one with window problems. Do you know anyone with Wenco windows? Jeld-Wen has stopped making the parts for repairing. We keep calling companies to no avail.

Jeld-Wen has given us several names of companies who don't have any parts. I called the builder, and the person sent me one name and this person doesn't deal in Wenco windows anymore. A law suit should be filed because of this problem. I may have to get two new windows and eventually get all of my many windows changed. What reader with a problem is a lawyer? A law suit should be filed. However,we don't have to KNOW a lawyer to move forward. I bought mine in rotted and fell out.

The issue with them was the rubber gasket around the glass. It just let water in with no way for it to dry. Any window products prior to the or so did not have very good rot protection. I have used Fenster a few times in my work and they work very well. Only bee a few years but no issues as of yet. Most "raw" wood windows plain wood, usually pine require maintenance and upkeep which nobody literally does, a few owners paint or stain, but when I find deteriorating wood windows in almost all cases have not been maintained properly.

I do offer parts and service on almost any window. I have found some raw wood windows are sealed with a "wet glazed" which means the glass was glued in a wood sash sealed so tight as to attempt to keep out water and wind that the glass cannot be removed from a wet glazed window without destroying the wood frame it is so tight.

Hint usually, if a wood window sash has a small U shaped channel type rubber gasket around the double glass, it can be replaced with a new double pane glass when it fails. I have made custom wood sashes for various kinds of wood windows when original parts were not available. I am looking for a copy of Caradco window manuals which show sizes and parts of glass, etc. Of any manufacturer. I am available for free consultation or advise on first inquiry by email at jerrycunninghamsr gmail.

I can understand your trouble. Now you have paid the payment and the warranty has expired of the window. There is no other option to replace the windows and spent more money on it. I built my house in and it has all original Caradco windows in it. Every one is tight and has no rot whatsoever. I wonder if they made different series of windows? BTW, I found this forum when searching for screens for my windows. I have Caradco quarter rounds feet by 6 feet --and the seals are broken, and they are foggy inside-- They are many thousands of dollars.

Whom would I call? The contractor or Jeldwen.?? Any ideas? You might want to stay away from Jeld-Wenn as well. We have had nothing but disappointment and broken promises. After 6 months we have been told Our mistake They ordered the glass at least 3 times and not a single window was correct.
