Some historic buildings feature a variety of window types, each distinct and important as historic elements deserving retention, restoration, and improvement to preserve the building's appeal and authenticity for future generations. All processes and products fully conform to the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Historic Rehabilitation. The team understands the requirements of working under the guidelines of the National Park Service and State Historic Preservation Offices to ensure that valuable tax credits are secured for their projects. With extensive experience in handling window restoration projects of all sizes across residential, commercial, and institutional settings throughout the Southeast and beyond, the organization excels in delivering exceptional results. For buildings where original windows are missing, their 20,000-square-foot facility specializes in replicating entire window systems to meet even the most demanding architectural specifications.
