Wood Window Restoration
Walking up to this Darien home, it was clear that the wood bay window had taken years of weather damage. The once-sturdy frame was severely decayed, the wood crumbling at the edges, and the structural support was compromised. The homeowners wanted to restore the beauty of their historic home, and that meant a full wood window restoration was the only option.
Our first step was to carefully remove the deteriorated sections without damaging the surrounding structure. In cases of severe wood rot, it’s crucial to determine what can be salvaged and what needs to be replaced. We reinforced the supporting framework, replacing damaged sections with high-quality, weather-resistant wood to ensure long-term durability.
Next, we crafted and installed custom wood trim that matched the original architectural design. Precision was key to keeping the window’s historic character intact. We then applied a protective sealant and weatherproof coating, shielding the wood from future damage. The finishing touch was a rich stain and paint application, restoring the window’s striking appearance and blending it seamlessly with the home’s exterior.
With the frame fully restored, we moved on to the window glass replacement. The old panes had lost their integrity, so we fitted new high-quality glass that matched the original style while offering increased strength. Proper caulking and sealing ensured no drafts or leaks would affect the home.
When the final touches were complete, the transformation was stunning. What was once a deteriorating, rotting frame was now a beautifully restored wood bay window, adding both charm and durability to this Darien home. The homeowners were thrilled with how we brought their vision to life, preserving the home’s character while ensuring long-term resilience.
