Custom Millwork
During the restoration of leaded windows, it is not uncommon to discover that the frame of the window has suffered the ravages of time and elements as well. Frequently, the convoluted shapes of the tracery of multiple lancet windows or rose window groupings provide places for water to pool and thus cause rot. Sills are also a frequent trouble spot.
Our carpenter is skilled at reproducing millwork to replace rotted sections. The rot is removed and the new pieces are epoxied and mechanically fastened in place, then filled, primed and painted to match the rest of the woodwork. This process in conjunction with our brick-to-brick protective glazing provides a much lighter maintenance schedule for the windows.
