Who can I hire to restore my old wood windows?
My sunroom's old wood windows are weathered and in bad shape. I would replace the windows, but I live in a historic district and the cost would be astronomical. I would like to have someone clean the window sashes and sand down the window frames, then refinish all the wood with some sort of exterior sealer. What kind of contractor does this type of work? There are 7 windows total, what might project cost me? jlgnerli@hotmail.com
How long does it take to install a new exterior door?
I am wanting to put in an exterior door... Standard size..off my bedroom. Exterior is brick. Would it be less expensive to use one of the existing windows..even though window height will be taller than door? What about gap above door where window was taller? Better to just cut through brick for exact size of door where there is no window? Do you know approximate cost of labor? Live in country...not city. K. Anz, Rhome, TX karenanz@earthlink.net
