Steel Window Repair

We provide on-site repair and restoration of steel casement windows and steel doors for those projects which require the window units to remain in the building. On-site work is performed with the proper equipment and processes to safely remove and contain the lead-based paints that are commonly found in some of the many layers of paint that have been applied to steel windows over the years. We remove the paint with equipment that keeps the paint from vaporizing into the atmosphere or from becoming airborne dust particles, and we carefully collect the old paint for proper disposal.

Bronze and Steel Window Hardware Restoration

We restore each piece of window hardware to its original condition. We clean, buff, and polish all brass and bronze hardware to its original luster. In cases where hardware has been broken, lost, or is deteriorated beyond restoration, we have the ability to cast or forge replacement pieces in our shop.

Media Blasting

Media blasting is one of several environmentally friendly methods we utilize to efficiently and safely remove paint and rust from old metal windows and doors. Media blasting is efficient in the removal of paint and other contaminants from bronze and steel windows, and the media is generally reusable for several processes. Media blasting is also very effective in the containment of harmful lead-based paints and glazing putty.

We remove any deteriorated steel sections and replace them with new steel sections that we fabricate in our shop. Whatever the condition of the steel casement windows or steel doors, we are able to repair, adjust and realign the windows and doors to work as they were originally designed.

We have the expertise to create detailed, reproduction steel casement window units to match existing windows when the situation arises. These reproduced steel casement window units can be used to exchange non-repairable windows or to correctly replace a window that was previously replaced with a lesser quality replacement window.

Metal Window Restoration & Repair Facility

We provide restoration of wood and metal windows and doors in our restoration shop all year long. Once we remove the units needing restoration and temporarily board-up and weatherproof the openings in the building, we then carefully document and tag each window and door for reinstallation into its original opening and transport the units to our shop to perform the restoration work. When the restoration is complete, we return the units and reinstall them into the building.

We can also assist you in arranging shipment of your windows and doors to our shop for restoration.
