How to manage a broken window before repair

01

Call Montgomery Glass Pro

Call our 24/7 emergency line at (240) 848-7148, or contact us to schedule an appointment. We can often schedule service promptly, so you may not need to complete the cleanup and board-up steps below.

02

Determine the cause

If you suspect a break-in, call the police and file a report. That also documents the cause for an insurance claim. If the window broke from weather or an accident, you may also need to file a claim. Before you clean up, call your homeowners insurance carrier and ask whether they need to inspect the damage or if a photo is enough.

03

Clean up broken glass

If glass is on the ground, clean it carefully. Protect yourself and your household. Use heavy-duty work gloves for large pieces and a brush or shop vac for small pieces. If shards remain stuck in the frame, remove them while wearing gloves. Pliers often make this easier.

04

Secure the opening

Cover the opening with plastic sheeting, cardboard, or plywood for temporary protection from the weather. If security from intruders is critical, consider blocking the opening with 2x4s cut to size.
