Window Restoration (or replacement)
« on: February 22, 2012, 10:25 am »
It's time to do something to our windows. The ground floor windows are all original. It looks like perhaps restoration is better than replacement? Any ideas who to talk to about getting the work done?

I live in a house built in 1880's I had a window that was rotted out on 3 sides and the bottom window that opens also was rotted out ...... I rebuilt my windows and put the window weights back in ..... if you was to look at my window now you would think it was never replaced ......

I feel that in my case it was best to rebuild them rather then replacement with a new window . If I was to buy a window like mine it would cost me alot .... but it cost me little over 150 dollars to build them .

But Geo, you are a wood worker and GretaGretchen is not.  I am betting all of your woodwork around your house is tip top!

Yes, I agree, with that I knew someone close that smoked and went to chewing tobacca. Used a spit can which was yuck, and then the door of his car.~Denise
