TALKING: Windows; To Repair, Restore or Replace?
We are looking into having our wood restored, and adding wood (instead of aluminium) storm windows for appearance. We have a mix of single-pane and double-hung windows. Unfortunately, the house is heavy on the single-pane. When do you give up on the old and give into the new?
According to the Glendale guidelines:
- "Windows are generally divided-light wood double-hung sash or divided-light steel
casements. - Wood and steel windows typically do not both occur on the same building.
Each bay usually has only one window. - Single pane hexagonal or round windows, typically near front doors, are common.
- Windows may be decorated with louvered or paneled shutters."
I will try to post examples of the above. I sure like the hexagonal windows. But double-hung wins the sexy award.
Thanks for such a nice post.
