We are embarking on restoring our 1920's home old windows. We hired a wonderful contractor David Schroeder from [IN]form Builders who specialized in restoration. Most people decide too quickly to replace old windows before looking to see if they can restore them. Older windows were made from old growth wood that were denser and more weather resistant than todays wood products. Our windows needed some TLC, having gone through many winters with loose crumbling paint.
