If you’re feeling a draft coming from an old window, chances are it’s time to give it new glazing. Glazing is the putty material that insulates the space between a glass pane and the window frame, and thankfully, it’s a pretty straightforward process to remove the old putty and reglaze a window. We’ve put together a helpful guide to glazing windows that works for brand new windows and older ones that need a little rehabbing. Read on if you’re ready to start glazing like a pro!

Expert Q&A
Tips
- Inspect the window before reglazing it. If there are only tiny cracks in the glazing, there’s no need to fix it. If the cracks are deep or there is no glazing, then it’s time to reglaze.Thanks
