Window & Door Restoration

Our Recent Historic Projects

  • Close-up of a black metal ladder with a rope tied around one of the rungs, in front of a wooden building with paneled doors and windows, on a deck with wooden planks, outdoors with blue sky and some clouds.

    Battle Ship

    The restoration of its pilothouse involved meticulous wood repair, traditional marine varnishing, and expert window conservation – all conducted in the challenging conditions of winter aboard a moored vessel. The project ensured that this national treasure remains accessible and inspiring for future generations.

  • Front porch of a brick house with white trim, a window with open shutters, and a white bench. A weathered wooden post with a rusty bell on top is in the foreground. Large trees with green leaves and grass are in the background.

    Historic School House

    In restoring the 1875 schoolhouse windows, our focus was on preserving the building’s historic integrity and craftsmanship. Using traditional materials and methods, we honored the schoolhouse’s original design while ensuring it remains structurally sound for future generations.
