The earliest half of the 20th century's wooden windows are one of the least appreciated elements of architecture. There is no need to purchase a new set of expensive windows if your problem could be solved!
Wood is a traditional natural material that has always been used by humanity in construction. Its unique properties determine that it is still in high demand. Good solid windows, even if they are old, are unwise to replace with plastic ones. It is much more reasonable to make a high-quality wood window repair.
Windows made of natural material give the interior a cozy atmosphere. The wood has a unique texture and a warm shade, all of which contribute to creating harmony in the room. Such panels have good thermal and sound insulation properties, which helps to reduce heating costs and create a quiet environment in the room.
We specialize in almost all wood window repairs and have been servicing Nassau and partially Suffolk Counties for years!
Why Choose Wooden Windows
There are several basic reasons why wooden panels are best suited for the interior:
Environmentally friendly
Wood is a natural, environmentally friendly material. Even though it is treated with special mixtures to give it durability, according to environmental indicators it is still much safer than plastic.
Excellent thermal insulation specs
In terms of thermal insulation properties, wood will not be surpassed by any artificial material. The low level of thermal conductivity eliminates the possibility of the formation of thermal bridges in the window frames, and consequently, the formation of condensate. Even in winter, the wooden details in the high-quality window remain warm and pleasant to the touch.
Proper air exchange
This material conducts a constant exchange of moisture and air, normalizing the amount of oxygen in the room. It is not for nothing that they say that wooden frames "breathe", maintaining a natural level of humidity. Air exchange occurs through the smallest pores of the wood. Polishes, varnishes, and special solutions currently used for wood processing do not interfere with air exchange.
Aesthetics
Wooden panes fit perfectly into any architectural style of the house. It harmonizes with natural stone and brickwork in combination with finishes made of various materials. A wooden panel looks especially harmonious in houses made of glued beams and rounded logs. Natural material combined with various painting methods will give your home a unique and finished look.
Functionality
Unlike plastic profiles, the construction of a wooden window is more rigid, which makes it possible to produce large panes. Due to the use of glued beams, the wood becomes more stable. Such devices do not lead, do not warp, and they do not change their geometry. According to the designer's idea arched, bay, trapezoids, and panoramic windows can be made.

Wooden items have their pros and cons. Here are some of the problems that owners face.
- Deformation. Such a material is exposed to moisture, sun, and wind. Therefore, windows can deform over time and need window repair.
