Wood Window Restoration

Nilso – how did it work out for you?  Any recomendations?  Everyone I talk to wants to sell me new windows.  They don’t seem to hear me when I say: I want to restore the old ones.

Am looking for recommendations for wood window restoration. There are a few people I have contacted, yet nobody appears to be interested in the job. Thank you for any leads.

Maybe you should be more specific on the scope of work.
How many windows, just repainting or other updates, fixing gaps.
Depending on the overall condition it might be also worth to consider replacing them.
