Specialists in the Repair and Restoration of Wooden Windows
Restoration vs. Replacement
Your original windows add a lot of character and charm to your home. Chances are they are made from some very solid, high quality wood assembled with fine craftsmanship. Replacement windows cannot compete on sturdiness of material or construction, plus they are designed to fit INSIDE the existing window opening making your windows even smaller!

What do we mean by restoration?
This window, from a house in Salem, MA, had fallen out of it's opening. A previous repair (metal corner bracket) had failed and the entire lower rail was rotted.
We made a new lower rail, re-glued the loose pieces, and did some epoxy
repairs before reglazing and painting. This window is good for another hundred years!
