Wood Window Restoration

The character of an historic building is expressed by its windows and shutters.  Historic wood windows using old growth lumber have proven their durability.  Regardless of their appearance, these windows and shutters can be restored to their original condition.  Original material is saved and reused whenever possible.  Wood window restoration is a most cost effective solution because a properly restored original period window will outlast any replacement window, wood, plastic or aluminum.
