Window-works

The finer details of a project are often overlooked in today's fast-paced industry. Windows, for example,  are a buildings' most delicate facet and require the time and expertise that only a seasoned professional can  provide.  According to Michael Lynch, Vice President for Properties and Preservation at the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities:

"Original and old windows are the most threatened element in preservation today, despite the fact that they are character-defining features of both the exterior and interior of a historic building. The replacement window industry aggressively markets to owners who don't know what to do with their rattling windows. Replacing an old window with a factory-made model destroys the rich variety of window details that makes each old house unique. "

At Jeff Balch, Inc. we pride ourselves on dedication to quality and experience in every project we undertake. Ned Tappero has been with the company  for over twenty years, and as he demonstrates in the restoration of these turn-of-the-century windows, care and precision are fundamental elements of our work.
