    Is it possible to repair scratched glass in windows?

    Is it possible to repair scratched glass or will these windows simply need to be replaced? Are there repairable scratches and those that are beyond repair etc.? How can I tell if a scratch is beyond repair (if there is a point beyond repair)?

    Gap in my window letting heat out

    Hi all, Just wondering if you could advise me on a gap in my window where the hinge is. I have a brown uPVC window but it seems to be letting in a draught. If you sit at the right angle you can see daylight coming through. This is the space between the window opening and the frame, is this something that can be tightened and re-aligned or does the window opening need replacing? Thanks in advance.

    Removing a uPVC porch

    In the front of our house we have an old uPVC porch. Its going to come down easily enough because it's just glazed panels. Im just wondering how it's actually attached to the house. I don’t mind ruining the porch but want to have minimal damage to the walls of my property. Thanks.
