How can I find those metal point to hold the glass?
@@eriksonmonteiro3633 Hardware store or window and glass shop. Called Window Push Points
Where do I get the glass?
@@thomasmastrocinque2609 any local window/glass/mirror shop 👍 just bring your measurements or call ahead for estimate
Who’s here because they accidentally broke the house window
Bobby Shmurda me
i smacked a mosquito and put my hand through the window
I am thanks to my teenage son.... good times!
Came home to a hole in my window. Pretty sure the boys did it either last night or before school this am. Ugh
i am....punched my bedroom window playing a game 😅
Really helpful when a storm took out 3 panes of glass in my old house (circa1890). Found out even a 65 year old lady can do this!
So glad the video was able to help you out with your windows 👍🏻
yes and don't those glass businesses hate this
Watching this video because I’m writing. My character broke his window on accident and is now having a premature window repair trip. Very helpful for a real broken window, and written DIY repair👍
Nice, that's awesome! Happy I could share 🙌👍
I just repaired my broken window today and this video helped me a lot. Thank you for this!
Glad it helped you out 😀👍🏻
I just downloaded this video because I’ve had to come back to it so many times now 😆 3 kids and a giant dog = lots of broken windows
Sorry to hear all the broken windows, good luck 👍
You can actually see what you are doing and the process entailed. Nice vid!
Thank you! :)
I love this video because you get right to the point! Thank you!
Thank you & you're welcome, I'm glad I could help 👍
Omg thank you cuz I was challenged with my broken wooden window because I had no idea how these pains were attached to the frame. Now after ur video I feel much less stupid then before! Lol
Haha glad it helped you out 😀👍🏻
Bro just saved me like $500. Thank you sir.
You're welcome, happy I could help you out and save you some money 👍
Another informative vid! 👍🏼 Well done.
Thanks for watching :)
THANK YOU! I just fixed my window ! Super proud :)
You're welcome & Great job! 😀👍🏻
This is great! I was going to hire someone to replace the small pane in my bedroom that my dog with the huge butt decided to sit against. She was fine. Most of the window is on the ground outside. Note to self, don't put bed against window while having a 90 dog in the family. Furniture is now rearranged and I'm going to put in the window! Thanks!
You're welcome, glad I could help. And glad your doggie is OK. Good luck 👍
Really entertaining to watch!!!

Nice video. I will probably end up doing this myself soon to the house I am in the process of buying. 2 garage windows are cracked and need replaced. Thanks for the confidence in doing it lol
You're welcome, glad I could help. Good luck with the move 👍
Thanks Jonny. I watched several of these vids where the measurement of the glass was skipped. It took me until now to find out I needed a 1/8" gap all round.
You're welcome, glad I could help! 👍
I will be doing this today, thanks for the video. #Texas
Youre welcome. Good luck with the project
thank you so much mane!!! Exactly what I needed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Jonny, searching to replace Double Glazed window--One glass,came accross your video. Many thanks for renewing basic knowledge. aftab ahmed. Londom
You're welcome, glad I could help 👍
Thanks for the video jonny
You're welcome, glad I was able to help you out 👍
I feel empowered now to tackle this on my own - thank you! Question though...I have the same type of window and am wondering how did you put the little tacks at the top of the window? It seems somewhat blocked by the upper stationary window.
You're welcome, glad I could help. I was still able to access and put the window "push points" in as well as caulk and seal that top portion of window. Good luck with the project 👍
tried scarring somebody and they punched through one of their windows now I gotta replace it lol this video helped a lot!! good look fam!!

Before I removed the glass, I laid some strips of masking tape across to keep it from falling apart when it broke - which it did.
good idea of taping glass before removing it, thank you for sharing 😀👍🏻
Thank you!
You're welcome 👍🏻
Great job.🙂
Thank you! 👍
@@JonnyDIY You're welcome. I like it, that you make it simple. You get to fixing the window without alot of talking. I was seeing another video about fixing a broken window and he was talking too much. And I stopped watching it. 😃
Thank you I’m definitely doing my own window
You're welcome, happy to help 👍 Good luck
So you leave the push points on place ? And thank you for the explanation of 45* caulking angle and measurements to allow for expansion with hot and cold
Yes push points stay in place and seal or glazing goes over them 👍
When applying the putty do you recommend using painter’s tape to get a more even edge?
Yes good idea will make it easier to keep it clean and straight 👍
Hi firstly thanks for a great video, I have a quick question. Did you had to cut the glass? Or it came pre cut it?
You're welcome, I took the measurements to a local glass and mirror shop and had them cut me a piece to those measurements. Was only about $25 dollars I believe 👍
nice, thank u~
You're welcome, glad I could help 👍
Thank you
You're welcome, glad I could help 🙌👍
Love the intro. 😂
Thank you! 😆👍
Is this window you did a (an) weighted window with the strings? And can u do it from the front or back.? Thank you
No weight on that window and no it had to be done from outside because of the frame is routed to have the glass sit on a lip on that side 👍
Nice
Thank you, glad to help 👍
At 2:11, what is that little thing you use to hold the windows in? Is there a link for that? Thanks
Window Glazing Push Points 👍 amzn.to/3QRjntm
Awesome especially when I just broke the window in my house handing decorations lol
Sorry to hear, good luck with the fix 👍
You made this look so easy! Ok now we are gonna try this at our house. Where do you buy glass for windows?
Any local window shop or mirror and glass shop should be able to cut you a piece. Just call ahead to confirm 👍
Ground level is nice , up a ladder a different deal.
Thnx, guy.
You're welcome Alex 🤙
Hi I would like to ask where did we go to get glass cut like what store they doing that
Any local window/glass/mirror shop will be able to cut you a piece 👍
Where do you exactly get the replacement glass because I can’t seem to find any online? Thanks.
You could get your piece of glass at a local glass/window shop where they can custom cut to your dimensions. Im not sure of any online glass providers but Im sure there are if you search google
Lowes has it and they will custom cut it for you. I'm doing my replacement this weekend.
Can this be done in the wintertime or better in spring/summer?
It can be done in Winter, just make sure you check the label on the type of caulking sealant or glazing compound for the temperature youre supposed to apply. So youd want to do it in the warmest part of day. And a tip is make sure you keep it stored inside somewhere warm before applying.
Where buy the glass? Please I don't have idea thanks.
Any window and glass shop. Just bring your precise measurements into the shop and theyll cut it for you. You can bring the total opening measurements to them and ask them to cut it slightly smaller or if you can just measure old glass or total opening measurements minus 1/8-1/4 inch smaller for expansion
What do you mean by 7/5?on my rulers a quarter inch would 6/8. It would be 31 by 6/8. I get confused when you say 7/5. Please help
Sorry for confusion I was saying 75 as in 0.75 or 3/4. So you want to measure the opening of the window and subtract 1/4 inch or 0.25 from each side. So if the opening is 30in x 20 in, get the glass cut size 29.75 x 19.75 inches. Good luck, hope this made sense
Thanks i put in the glass my self for the first time and my dad helped. All went well but my dad crack the glass a little putting in thos little metal clips to hold the glass in. He cracked it putting in the clip on the right side of window frame. It was our last clip to and it would have been done with no cracks if it wasnt for the last mistake. Lol i felt like a pro until we cracked it at the end of our job lol. Next time if i ever do it again im do it with out the clips just use the sealant. Thanks for vid and Reply.
Ohh mann, sorry to hear about the crack, hopefully it wasnt a big crack. Yes sealant alone will hold it in, but always good idea to use points. Just got to push them in carefully
place a business card behind the metal tab before inserting it
Thank you! My nephew broke a neighbors window 🪟 looks like the same one!
You're welcome glad to help! 👍
Love the intro 😂
Thank you 😆👍
Good video! But I have a question. You take a 1/4" off the measurement so there's an 1/8" gap all the way around but then it looks like you put the window in so it's actually resting on the bottom of the pane. Wouldn't that mean now there's no gap at the bottom and 1/4" gap at the top? Is that OK?
It's ok still. It's just to allow space for expansion and contraction with the changing of the seasons 👍 it should still be able to move with the flexible sealant. You just don't want the glass to be a perfect fit or it'll break when expands
Do the points just slide in tight in the gap with the glass?
I noticed that you only used the window holding pins on the outside. What holds the window from now falling through to the inside. Does the inside need to be glazed also?
The inside edge is smaller than the glass, so glass gets pressed against it. If you use glazing no need to put any behind glass but if you use sealant you can run a bead around before putting glass in to give it some extra seal 👍🏻
@@JonnyDIY awesome thanks.
@@wsmaga you're welcome 👍🏻
Hey Jonny..My window has double layered glass. I broke only one layer glass. How can i repair that??
With dual pane you need to buy a new panel from a window shop because theres gas in between the layers. That or cut/pull the broken pane and you'd have just single pane for that 1 window
any advice on replacing a window on the 2nd floor? can it be done from the inside ?
If the window sash isnt removable or its on fixed portion it may be tricky to do. If older wood frame window the metal push points need to be installed from outside. If newer type window you could apply sealer to frame and pull window in against it and tape it to frame while drying so doesnt fall out. You will need to buy window suction cup with handle to achieve the inward pull 👍🏻
@@JonnyDIY I have an older woodframe, so no way of avoiding the need to install and seal it from the outside? So I assume scaffolding or a ladder will be required. Did I understand correctly? Thank you for being so responsive!!
@@yomman123 Yes will be best to install from outside. You can try as I said with the new piece of glass and suction cup to pull against sealant from inside the house. May be best to just hire a glass company or handyman who has a ladder though. Call around for quotes and should be able to find a good price
Do I need both sides of a double pane window? Because I broke the I side layer and i am trying to take out the whole inside layer so my parents don’t see
If you only broke 1 layer of dual pane, just replace that 1. Hope tou get it done. If its the sash that goes up and down sometimes you can remove that and take it in to glass shop
What do you do if the wood at the bottom breaks as well? I have to replace both 😢
Bummer, yeah will have to repair or replace that too
I'm an absolute novice but if I'm replacing a window pane the way you did in the video do I also have to caulk the inside? Or only the outside needs to be beaded and caulked?
Yes it's best you apply a bead to the inside edge of window framing, then place new glass in then caulk the outside edge as well. 👍🏻
@@JonnyDIY bead?
@@double_snag8231 yes a "bead" or "line" of sealant
@@JonnyDIY would it work if I did the process from the inside? 🙁
Great video btw! Really informative!
@@cher21147its possible, but a lot more work. Would need a glass suction cup to pull it in towards yourself to mount it. Will be tricky especially if on 2nd or higher story floor
Had to break into my house thanks ☺️
You're welcome 😀👍🏻
We have an old window that I’m looking to replace the glass but don’t see any points
The points are underneath the glazing. Once you chip and remove it youll see them. You just push the points into the wood flush against the glass. Not too tight against though. Dont want to crack or chip glass 😀👍
Lovely jubbly
Thank you 😀👍
Guy who’s wispers “say gently”
Great video though
2:15 ahaha had never caught that, it was my Uncle
Is it possible to change a window from the inside only? I don’t have a ladder to get up to the second floor from the outside.
Only if its a newer window where you can remove the sash and work on it, other than that youll need to work from the other side. Maybe can borrow a ladder, or I see them for sale all the time cheap on craiglist, or Facebook marketplace, offerup
@@JonnyDIY thank you so much I appreciate you answering so quickly. It's a hundred year old house and the windows don't look too new. One is plexiglass and the other is glass. The owners of the house just didn't fix things correctly. The plexiglass pushed out from the window pretty easily. I tried to fix it but ended up breaking a piece off instead. I'll see if I can't borrow or rent a ladder. Also means I'll have to talk to downstairs neighbors. They aren't the friendliest, the ladder would have to go in front of their window too. They'll survive.
@@throwmilly ohh wow 100 year old house. Yeah they require quite a bit of upkeep. My family used to live in one in Southern California
Where did you buy the glass itself?
Window and Glass shop. They will be able to cut the glass to your specific size. Just bring measurements and make sure to have it 1/8 to 1/4 inch smaller than opening for expansion 👍🏻
Thanks broke my window during hail storm.
Hope this video helped you out 😀👍🏻
Any idea where I can buy the glass cut to the right size for my window!!!
Glass and window shops will be able to cut you a piece to size. Just be sure to make sure measurement correct 👍🏻
@@JonnyDIY Thank you!! I am going to see if Lowe's will cut their panes of replacement glass to the size I need. I appreciate your video it was very clear and helpful! :)
You're welcome 👍🏻
That window looks pretty old. Is it the same process with the newer windows with aluminum framing?
Somewhat similar. But will probably need to take apart some of window to get new piece in
If you search: Aluminum Window Glass Replacement. Youll come up with some helpful, single pane or dual pane differ
Can you do this from the inside? Im on the 2nd floor.
No I dont think so as the glass is usually installed from the outside in. Maybe you can remove the window sash
1:50 Those little metal things are called "glazing push points" or glazier's steel push points.
Thanks! 👍
are they put in before or after the window goes in?
And where can I buy the custom glass? Home depotv
Local glass and mirror shop best, just bring dimensions. Home depot does sell and cut glass but usually just small sizes so you'll have to double check if it's within your parameter 👍
I threw a bag of cheese through my window in anger. Now I'm here.
Cheese Louise 😄 lol sorry about that
my window is a double panel ,so my question is where can I find the panel replacement? Thanks
Take pictures and measurements of window and go to your local window and glass shop. Theyll be able to order you a new one the size you need. If its the removable sash part you can remove and take in to them
Where do you buy the window pane
Search your area for local Glass Shops
Can u buy new points? Where do u get them?
Window and glass shops will usually give them to you free when you buy a new piece of glass, just ask if they forget. And if you already have glass you can get them at Home Depot or Lowes or any Hardware store. Ask for Window Glazing Points
where do you get the glass from?
Local glass and mirror shop. They'll cut to size 👍
Glazing. Does a better job. learned the hard way.
It's tried and true that's for sure! Only drawback is how long it takes to cure
I am replacing a window similar in measurement how much should I charge ?
Well materials plus time. Say $80-100. Probably have around $30 or so in materials. Maybe 2 hrs labor total
@@JonnyDIY why 2 hours of labor?
@@automotivetv9861 time to come out and measure, go get the glass, and come back and install. Probably more like $150-$200 depending where live
@@JonnyDIY ohh
Does this work for double pane?
Yes but you wong have any of the insulation qualities with that section if you do that. To get that youll have to go to window shop and they can order you replacement of the part that broke 👍🏻
I came back after doing it the "right way" with glazing putty to say, you're doing it the right way. Silicone would have been way easier, tighter seal and the finished product would have looked cleaner. Putty on the other hand, is way messier for a non-pro than any of the other YT videos make it seem; and there's always one place that looks like shit until you actually rip the whole piece away from the window, and eventually give up trying to make it look nice. I wish I had done it your way. I want the last hour of my life back.
Sorry to hear, yes glazing putty is an art, I can't do it either hah. Make sure you wait I think like a month before painting. Takes a long time to dry
Where do you get the glass and how did you cut it to size?
Got it from window and glass shop. Take measurement of glass to them and they cut to size 👍🏻
@@JonnyDIY thank you thank you
@@jayrider9240 you're welcome👍🏻
Hey I have a rather dumb question but this is a real question. My home window broke and the contractor is claiming the same amount of money to replace annealed glass as tempered glass even though tempered glass is twice as expensive as annealed glass. He claims this is because annealed glass tends to break during installation and therefore costs more (in labor) to install even though the glass itself is so much cheaper. I am not that handy so can you help me please ? Is he BS-ing or telling the truth ? Is there any reason why it would cost just as much to install annealed glass as tempered glass ?
Please help !!!
No problem. Tempered glass should be more expenisive of a job than regular "annealed" glass. Get another quote from a window and glass shop to compare prices. He may just have a set fee he charges for either or to cover his expenses like he says. It is very easy to break a non tempered sheet of glass upon installation. But another quote will solve the problem, his price may be close
Jonny DIY thank you so much ! This is where the plot thickens. I am getting the materials from him and he was supposed to do an installation as well. I am a renter in an apartment that is owned by a corporate landlord and this guy is their "preferred contractor". They (leasing agent) are giving me a really hard time about comparison shopping. Should I just ask him why he's charging yue same fee even though annealed glass is $3 per square ft as opposed to tempered glass as $6 per square ft ? Also this is California so maybe things are "strange" here lol
Any advise for me ?
Im here in CA too so Im familiar with all the craziness haha...Hmm well if youre having to pay to fix the rental window Im assuming it was your fault for the damage. I would still call and get a quote (just give them window opening measurement) from another reputable window place & if it differs by a lot you've got a case to hire them. It may end up being very close in price. A smaller piece of glass like the window I replaced in this video cost around $20 so even at double it would only be $40. But I know sometimes its harder & costs a bit to get small jobs like this done (especially in big cities) unless a handyman type does it, just because of the time coming out and doing it. So I would just follow through on another quote & give yourself some peace of mind, so you don't feel like you're getting ripped off.
What if it’s on the third floor and yr afraid of heights?
Haha better have someone come help you 👍🏻
