I had to pay a glazer to sort a couple of windows about 10 years ago.
Can't remember how much it cost, not overly expensive but I wouldn't fancy replacing a hole house worth. As I said it was only a couple.

there is a couple of strips that can be re-glued no probs,
but one window has about 8 inches missing.
i know several other windows have areas starting to lift so i was going to glue these as well

We've stuck bits that have come loose with Aldrite twin pack, same glue used for reglueing pole clamps. Usually have to hold it in place untill the glue sets. Works fine. Never seen any replacement sections for sale, not that I have ever looked. I think the original comes with double sided tape - remove the paper, line it up and stick it.
