WZ Carpentry provides window installation and window replacement in Washington, CT. Litchfield County winters are harder than the shoreline, and period Washington homes carry window casings that no supplier stocks today.
Washington window work is largely a preservation question. The casing detail around these openings is original, and modern replacement trim reads wrong beside it.
Sound original material stays. Failed sections get reproduced so the repair disappears into the run rather than announcing itself.
WZ Carpentry sorts that out during a free visit anywhere in Washington, CT.
Washington sits inland and higher than the shoreline towns, and the freeze and thaw cycle is more severe because of it.
Water forced into the joint above a window expands every time it freezes, and the opening loosens measurably over a few winters.
