The Wiregrass gets punishing summer heat and enough tropical rain that hurricane remnants are a normal part of the year, not an exception. Sally and Michael both did door and window damage this far inland.
Blowing sand etches glass, packs into slider window tracks and abrades weatherstrip, and it is the reason sliding windows in sandy areas need their rollers replaced far more often.
Windows are designed to collect water in the frame and drain it out through weep holes, and blocked weeps during heavy rain is the standard reason water appears on an interior sill.
We see the pattern often enough across Conecuh County that we usually know what we are looking at before we arrive.
Local factors we account for in Evergreen: blowing sand and heavy rainfall — typical of the Wiregrass.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895What happens when we get there
- Identify the window type and manufacturerBalances, operators and hardware are specific, and getting the right part is most of the job.
- Operate it slowly and watchWhere the effort rises through the travel tells us which component has failed, often before anything comes apart.
- Check the drainageBlocked weep slots put water on the sill and into the wall, and they are behind a lot of what gets blamed on the glass.
- Repair rather than replace where it makes senseBalances, operators, locks and glass units are all serviceable parts. A whole window is rarely the honest answer. We look at how much sand is reaching the opening, since sometimes a sweep or a threshold change does more good than new hardware.
- Reseal properlyNew weatherstrip and glazing seals so the window performs as it should.
- Test operation and lock engagementThe sash should move with light effort, stay where it is put, and lock without being pulled into position.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895What affects the cost of window repair in Evergreen
We would rather tell you what drives the price than quote a number that turns out to be wrong once we see the door. On a window repair job in Evergreen, the main variables are these:
- wood repair and rot splicing where the frame is damaged
- commercial glazing and access requirements
- glass unit size, tempering and low-E coatings
- the type of window and whether replacement hardware is still available
- single window versus several in one visit
Call and describe what the door is doing. In most cases we can tell you over the phone which of those applies to you before anyone drives out to Evergreen.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Window repair in Evergreen: questions we get asked
Can foggy windows be repaired?
The sealed glass unit gets replaced, but the frame, sash and hardware stay. That is the repair, and it costs a fraction of window replacement.
Why will my window not lock anymore?
The sash has dropped or shifted, so the lock and keeper no longer meet. Forcing it can break the lock, and the actual fix is usually alignment rather than new hardware.
My window will not stay open. What is broken?
The balances. On a double hung window they counterweight the sash, and when one fails the sash drops. It is a replaceable part and far cheaper than a new window.
Can painted-shut windows be opened again?
Usually yes, with care. It takes patience to cut the paint seal without damaging the sash or the stops, but old windows in Evergreen homes are often perfectly serviceable once freed.
How do I stop condensation on my windows in winter?
Some of it is indoor humidity rather than the window. But if the glass surface is cold enough to condense heavily, the unit may have failed. In Evergreen it is worth checking whether the moisture is on the surface or between the panes.
Water is coming in at my window sill. What causes that?
Usually blocked weep holes. Windows are designed to collect water in the frame and drain it out, and when those drains clog it backs up and comes inside instead.
