Wood Windows

The Riverdale area in Southwest Portland near Lewis & Clark College.

The back side of this one of many very prominent homes in this neighborhood is not surprisingly showing the consequences of having wood windows in such an exposure.

So we had new custom sash manufactured and went about repairing and replacing the jambs and the rough-opening components as needed.

We erected scaffold & tarped-off what was ostensibly the master-bedroom to keep the elements at bay.

Fortunately, as I recall, these folks had other digs in various places around the world to go live in while the heavy construction ensued.

Master Jared no doubt pondering the complexities of bearing the burdens related to having such properties and possessions to care for and maintain?or maybe he was just thinking it was about time for lunch.

Once the sash are removed, the secret life of the fungus and the consequential damage becomes more and more evident.

More of the same.
