Shouldn’t take much to install it. Not sure what the relevance is between the window and the brick building… I would do it. Call me at 347-276-6528 Levi SoHoAppliances

Hi,
With extensive collection of premium doors which suits your taste available in the market its quite confusing to select the best in the business. There are services which employ German technology for bringing forth resilient, energy efficient and beautiful doors. Last summer I had some renovation done for my house and the doors were all replaced with new ones. It was high time for renovation. I approached my friend for some info and I finally opted for the custom doors by door installation services Canglow Windows and Doors Edmonton (canglow.ca/doors/custom-doors/). Next time I would surely upload few photographs too.
Custom doors can be of various types like
Solid Hardwoods, MDF or say fibre glass. The one I opted was fibre glass for its durability. Remember there are services which provide patio and entry doors too. Always pick energy efficient doors.
Best of luck

Are your doors so badly damaged that they can’t be refurbished?

Hi @orrsuz, Are you saying you want new windows with no interior walls, but to just leave the exterior wall as exposed brick?

Assuming you have a typical Brooklyn brick townhouse, the inside brick will be wider by 4 inches than the exterior.

I would suggest using this recess to secure studs to the brick building it out so the window can have brick molding on the exterior, insulating all around the framing and window, and then secure the window to the stud(s). With the window and studs in place you can then add trim.

If on the other hand you push the windows outward towards the facade you might be able to secure them directly to the brick, but you’ll have to ensure the jamb of the window works with the depth of the brick layers (brick townhouse vary from 8″ typical up to 16″). If you do that, don’t forget to incorporate the Energy Conservation Code regarding insulation requirements into your design 🙂 Good luck.

not the best of photos due to the bad lighting .

Assuming that it’s old weight & chain wood Windows.
You have a weight pocket of about 3″ on either side that would need to be filled.
keeping the old casing is tricky as the new Windows must be custom sized to the 1/8″ or they won’t fit.

If the Window frames/Box are still in good shape look into Pocket Windows which are full new Windows with a 3.5″ jamb and get installed into the existing frame.

This Brownstoner post on window replacement shows the inside of the window with the window gone. The interior molding is still attached, however, so it doesn’t show what’s under there. http://www.brownstoner.com/interiors-renovation/photo-pool-challenge-replacement-windows/

For a historic door I would recommend amighini architecture, I got a reasonable quote from them for install and landmarks filing. In the end we did not proceed as landmarks wanted the exact door in our tax photo which was different to what we had in mind so ensure you have a refund clause in any agreement if you are dealing with LPC approval. I would also Joe Salem at Woodzone who I think has been recommended before.

We have a large skylight in our extension and there is considerable heat gain–welcome in the winter, less so in the summer. I looked into a Lutron shade and believe it was in the neighborhood of $2k installed. Ours is much smaller than what you are considering and is flat.

Thanks!! Any idea on how much these things cost approximately. I assume they don’t come cheap, but are we talking a big screen TV ($1-$4K) or a used car ($10K+)

Yea I agree! I am not going with that guy. He was very shady. My architect may be able to be my inspector. I am waiting for his email response. From neighbors, the highest price I’ve heard of so far is $5,000. Thank you for your input!

Do you have a SE? Your engineer may also be able to be your special inspector for steel/concrete which should save cost. This price seems insane- our SE is both our engineer and our inspector for structural work and is about half this cost for a 3-story extension.

I am renovating a single family home in Astoria. I am adding a third floor to an existing two floor home. To do this I had to have steel installed and concrete poured. The house is only 2600 square feet. A “special inspector” quoted me $18,000 for the initial inspection with an additional $800 per follow up visit, of which there would be six. Is this correct? It seems way too expensive.

Interesting stuff to hear! A doorway leads to a creative interior to the home. But along with it, it is important to have a impact doors which can safeguard your home as well as give the new and interesting look to the home. My neighbor had such plans and he researched around with [impact doors Miami](http://www.impactresistantwindowsndoors.com/impact-doors-miami/), doors fort Lauderdale and made it suitable to establish a new doorway within his house. It was cheap and in the budget.

But is Collen right about placing the boiler in the yard? Is it that element-proof and what are the downsides…seems scary to me..

Collen… as MP said PVC is no longer allowed in NYC as a venting material, period. Secondly in most brownstone conditions, sidewall venting is not possible due to required clearance from windows. (Do you want your window a/c sucking in carbon monoxide from the boiler?) So the usual strategy for venting an HE boiler is to run stainless steel vents in the chimney. Even on a plain vanilla boiler relining, stainless seel is the only approved material. Guess what ? They do not sell stainless steel liners at Home Depot. They sell really thin galvanized duct which will rot out in a year.
