Wood Window Repair Workshop
New Hampshire, Enfield Shaker Museum, June 25-27, 1999
Contact: The Preservation Institute, 802 674-6752
Thousands of wood windows are ripped out of this country’s older and historic
buildings and hauled to the dump each year. This astonishing loss is due in
large part to the fact that few people know how to maintain and repair their
existing wood windows. In this three day workshop John Leeke guides and
trains you in the most practical and economic methods of maintenance and
repair of older and historic wood windows. Learn specific treatments for the
ten most common wood window problems: broken glass, rotten sash joints,
weathered sills, bowed meeting rails, frame joint decay, and more. Learn how
windows were originally constructed, why some last for centuries and others
rot and fall apart after just a few years. Learn traditional methods and the
latest in modern high-tech materials and techniques:
- Conditions: survey, assessment and investigation
- Treatments: specific methods, materials and techniques
- Planning: project planning, organization and logistics
- Costing: developing your own standards
- Maintenance: detailed treatments and schedules for ongoing care
