Despite all
the exaggerated claims from the replacement window companies,
your home's original windows can be restored and tuned
so that they operate smoothly and efficiently and with
increased insulating value, all while maintaining the
house's original appearance.
Nothing can destroy the look
of a house more than replacement windows, and the small decrease
in heating costs that they may provide will never pay for
the new windows within their short lifetime (if you are considering
vinyl windows, make sure you ask to see one that is 10 years
old first!). Remember, "maintenance-free," is really a euphemism
for "non-maintainable."
Window restoration and tuning
(doors too) is a unique service we provide. For less than
the cost of even the cheapest replacement window, we can restore
your windows to their original quality. With a beautiful wood
storm window — whether a combination storm/screen of a
fixed unit — we can bring its R-value close to that of
a new window.
And for those times when a
new window or door is necessary, we can provide you the best,
most historically and architecturally appropriate options.
