Durable Aluminum & Wood Window Repair in Winnipeg
Fort Rouge Glass has been an aluminum and wood window repair and replacement company in Winnipeg since opening our doors in 1968. We often hear that people are having problems with their aluminum or wood windows, and they worry that they must replace the entire window (glass and framing). Most of the time, replacing the entire window and frame isn't necessary. If your windows are in relatively good condition, we can replace the broken or foggy-sealed portion.
​
As a window glass company in Winnipeg and the surrounding areas, backed with over 50 years of service, Fort Rouge Glass can often save you significant money from doing an entire window glass replacement. Other companies often want to upsell you to install new windows, which is optional. Also, it will cost a considerable amount of money compared to window glass repair, which involves utilizing a perfect window that may just have a leaking sealed unit or worn-out hardware.
Most of the common problems our specialists are called upon to fix include:
-
Malfunctioning hardware
-
Sealed unit failure
-
Broken glass
Here is a list of some of the services and products we offer:
-
Custom-manufactured windows

Signs You Need Window Repair Instead of Replacement
In many cases, full window replacement isn’t necessary. Repair can resolve most performance or visual issues without removing the entire frame.
Common repair indicators include:
-
Glass fogging between panes (seal failure).
-
Cracks or chips in one section of the pane.
-
Difficulty opening or closing the window.
-
Water or air infiltration despite intact framing.
-
Cosmetic issues affecting only the glass, not the structure.

Energy Efficiency Emphasis
Repairing windows can significantly improve a property's energy efficiency, especially in Winnipeg's climate, where seasonal temperature changes are often extreme. We provide window repair services in Winnipeg that restore insulation, reduce drafts, and support long-term energy savings.
Window repairs improve efficiency by:
-
Sealed unit replacement: Failed double or triple-pane windows often trap moisture between layers, reducing thermal resistance. Replacing just the insulated glass unit (IGU) restores both clarity and insulation.
-
Air infiltration reduction: Misaligned frames or damaged weatherstripping allow air leaks. Repairing seals and adjusting hardware improves the air barrier and reduces HVAC load.
-
Hardware functionality: Operational issues, such as stiff locks or off-track sliders, can prevent windows from closing tightly. Repairs ensure a secure, airtight closure.
