WINDOWS
WORTH SAVING

Before you discard your beautiful, historic wood windows, please fully consider the long term cost of opting into the window replacement cycle. A wood window professionally restored by Cleary and Son, Inc. will outlast any modern replacement window several times over. This is partly because its original period craftsmanship is difficult to duplicate but mostly it is because the first growth lumber used in period construction is far more stable, dense and rot resistant than any now available, at any price. It doesn't make sense to replace a beautiful, historic window that can last another century with a modern replacement window which will last only 15-20 years.

National Register, Museum Restoration.

Consider that your original historic window has already withstood a century or more of constant operation and exposure to the elements. It may bear some marks of rough handling now, but when our wood window restoration process is complete, it will look and operate like new. Like many of our clients, you may even question whether the restored window sash is in fact your original window! Properly restored, your historic wood window will look great, it will operate like new and it will cost much less than its replacements when the costs are calculated over its full life cycle.
