Window Repair Company - No sissies preferred

[blakbearddelite]

I've called at least four different glass repair places and none will fix a window in my house. These candy asses are all too afraid to get on a 20ft ladder to repair a window. I have a thermal pane window that needs to be replaced. It is more than three feet off the ground, so these guys are terrified to get on a ladder.

Does anyone have any recommendations of a glass place that isn't full of scared little girls?

It costs a lot more for insurance if companies go up on ladders. Many companies don't want to pay the money so they don't go up on the ladders (or at least not 20 feet).

Can you get scaffolding in there? It's not all that hard to replace a window if you have somewhere solid to stand.

I simply replaced all my windows myself. That way I know the job is done right. And it’s pretty easy to do. I have a walkout basement. So the rear of my house is over 30’ high. I replaced all my windows up there from the inside. Fuck messing with my 32’ ladder. No need. Easy peasy.



Perhaps ask if you can take the window to them to have new glass installed. Cover up the opening with plastic and tape.

I don't know the first thing about removing a window. I have a ladder that would reach, but I don't know I could hold the big window and navigate a ladder.

Don’t be a sissy!

I already filed a $24k claim with homeowners insurance this year. I think that door is closed.

I watched a couple of videos, and it doesn't look impossible. But I'd prefer to let a professional handle it. I'm sure I'd just do a half ass job like almost all my other attempts at home repair.
