The mowers shattered a window in a french door. I called a Humble glass company and they wanted $600 for replace the window. Coming down from $700. I thought that sounded very high. Is this a reasonable cost? I usually use Kingwood Glass but they are out of the office until the 16th. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

In my former house with original single pane windows, I found it easier to just get some plexiglass cut at Home Depot or Lowe's, and replaced it myself with glass caulk.

But in this era of double pane windows, some backed by lifetime warranties, it may be worth identifying the brand of your door and find out what the warranty is.

That is a good idea and one I didn't think of.
