Your old historic windows have charm. They were built to complement the architectural design of the entire house. When you have an old historic home, these old windows are essential to keeping it original and historic. And while they can be a pain, replacing them just shouldn’t be an option. Especially when you consider the alternative – generic, flimsy modern replacements that cannot hold a candle to restored originals. Sure, the hype of replacements sure sounds promising. Better operation than old ones and energy efficiency to boot… but what they don’t tell you is that when you restore windows, they will operate and be just as energy efficient as new replacements - and at a fraction of the cost too. They also don't tell you about the true nature of replacements. the fact that they only last for several years on average and will eventually need replacement themselves. All this while those old ones were designed to last a lifetime, and with a little maintenance, will last lifetimes to come.

Replacement ones are mass produced cheaply with plastic parts, springs and strings that will eventually wear out. The double pane glass that makes them so energy efficient can and often does fail, leaving you with a replacement that gets all cloudy – and then requires replacement once again. On the other hand, the old wood ones that may frustrate you when you try and open them and might look a little ugly from many years of neglect were built by craftsmen with wood that was designed to last for decades upon decades. They were cut from trees that came from forests that yielded strong, durable lumber that was extremely resistant to decay. With a little maintenance they can last for decades and decades to come. So it makes the most sense that you should restore them instead – not replace them. It will ultimately cost much less and leave your house with the original beauty and charm that it was always intended to have.
