Causes Of Window Fog And Glass Damage

  1. Condensation Between Panes - Fog between double- or triple-pane windows often indicates a broken seal, allowing moisture to get trapped and cloud the glass. This typically happens over time due to temperature changes, direct sunlight exposure, or general wear.
  2. High Indoor Humidity - In homes with high indoor humidity, single-pane or even double-pane windows can fog when warm, moist air inside meets the colder window surface. This is especially common in kitchens, bathrooms, and during colder months.
  3. Thermal Glass Damage - Glass can crack from thermal stress when parts of it expand due to heat while other areas stay cool, which often occurs with rapid temperature changes or partial shading on the window

Solutions to Window and Glass Issues

Glass Replacement vs. Full Window Replacement

Many homeowners assume they must replace the entire window or frame if their glass is broken. However, in most cases, it’s possible to replace just the glass, saving significant costs and maintaining the existing frame’s integrity. Our expert team at Atkinson's Mirror & Glass can assess the issue and replace only the damaged glass, whether it’s for a cracked window pane, shattered shower glass, or damaged mirror. We custom-cut each replacement piece to fit your specifications perfectly, ensuring a seamless look and restoring your space to its original condition.

Improving Indoor Ventilation

Managing indoor humidity with exhaust fans in kitchens, bathrooms, or using dehumidifiers during colder months can reduce window fogging from condensation, keeping your glass clearer for longer.


Whether for residential or commercial needs, Atkinson's Mirror & Glass offers comprehensive glass repair services. By choosing glass replacement, you’re opting for a cost-effective, sustainable solution that keeps your space looking flawless while maintaining the integrity of your existing windows and frames.
