What We Do

Window Preservation and Restoration

Window Restoration and Preservation

Wood window sashes have lasted 100 years or more. We stay true to the original craftsmanship in reproducing wood window sashes that will allow them to last another century or more. We craft the right wood sash for the building and period. Type of wood sashes we craft are double hung wood sash, triple hung wood sash, wood storms, quarter round sash or an elliptical fan sash.

Custom Doors
