After the glass has been removed, place it flat onto several layers of newspapers to catch any pieces that may fall.
To install a replacement glass, you'll need to prepare the frame and buy replacement glass. To ensure that the new pane fits properly, measure the opening of the frame and subtract between 1/16 and 1/8 inch on both sides. Then have your replacement glass cut according to this measurement at a local glass shop or at a hardware store. If you have wooden frames, you can purchase glaziers points from a hardware shop to install along the edge of your new pane.

The lintel on top of the window can be a source of leaks.

This will prevent water from getting into the structure through these gaps.
A gap between the glass panes of a double-glazed windows could also be the cause of leaks.

The spacer bar is stuffed with desiccant that absorbs any moisture that may occur, therefore preventing it from reaching the glass panes and causing condensation. The spacer bar is susceptible to cracking or breaking, and it's often necessary to replace the entire window.
