About
If you are reading this, you probably already know the virtues of these antique architectural treasures; the way they fit your home, the graceful proportions and fine detail, the way light glimmers through the hand made glass and that they still exist after 100+ years. Maybe they are not functioning quite as well as when they were new, or not functioning at all. It is not a fault in this proven design but simply a lack of proper maintenance over the years. With the right care these windows are designed to provide centuries of functional use. We can restore them to their original condition as well as incorporate modern and traditional weather stripping to make them perform better than ever. It is unfortunate that these architecturally correct windows are being discarded to landfills when all they need is some skilled hands. Let us evaluate the condition of your windows.

Testimonials
"My husband and I bought an early 1900's dutch colonial which still had most of the original double hung windows - and four original sets of french doors. They were gorgeous and a large part of the reason we bought the house. But they needed serious work - 100 years of paint and neglect needed to be undone! After meeting with a number of window restorers, Peter of Method Restoration stood out to us. He explained the process to us and it was clear that not only does he love his job, he probably loves our windows more than we do (which is saying a lot)! Peter and his assistant restored 30+ windows and the french doors and they look beautiful. They are truly the showpiece of the home. In fact, every time painters came to give us quotes on painting the interior of the house, they'd look at the windows and say something along the lines of, "Our work will be good, but it won't look like that!" As an aside, Peter also helped with much more than the windows - he was a trusted advisor on different parts of our renovation. And when a plasterer messed up a cornice repair, Peter had just the right recommendation for another true artist who fixed the original mistake. My husband and I can't recommend Peter highly enough."
