About the Event
Ever think to yourself, are my wood windows are worth saving? Can I repair them myself? Will I save money on my energy bill? (Answers: Yes, yes, and yes!)
Join window restorer Joe Hayes for an class all about windows. Joe will explain the difference between original and replacement windows, and demonstrate common repairs that you can do at home. You'll get a thorough overview on how to fix broken sash cords, reglaze windows, prepare for refinishing, and improve overall window operation. This will be a hands-on workshop, designed to boost your confidence in basic window repair skills. Most importantly, you'll learn why old wood windows can be just as energy efficient as replacements.
