First you need to make sure that you have the right tools for the house window project. I always tell my readers never to start a job without all the necessary tools in place. So you need to make sure that the following is available:

Glass of Proper Size that you will use to replace the old one with, a glass cutter for sizing the windows, putty knife or alternatively you can use a glazer or scraper, paint, pliers, paintbrush, chisel, razorblade scraper, linseed oil, heat gun or make that a soldering tool, window scraper, glazier's points and a hand cleaner. You also need to organize some work glover to protect your hands from the broken glass and all the debris.

Once you have all these then you are ready for your house window spring repair. Now let me provide some key tips about the actual repair process;
