We help our clients preserve, restore, and enjoy their old homes.

  • We care for historic homes so they can last another century.

    Common projects include:

    • Exterior Restoration

    • Wood Rot

    • Architectural details

    • Structural repairs

    • Stairs, Porches, Railings

    • Painting & Traditional Finishes

    • Full Home Evaluations

    • Lead Abatement

    • Historic Tax Credit Assistance

  • Restoration

    Every year, many original wooden windows and doors go to the dump.

    We get it. Poorly maintained, painted shut, or in need of repair, they are often drafty and frustrating to operate.

    If you still have your originals, restoration can be a rewarding alternative to replacement, preserving the timeless feel of an older home while keeping old-growth lumber out of landfills.

    We return original windows and doors to an operable, beautiful, energy-efficient state, using finishes and techniques that last a lifetime.

    New/Replacement

    Sometimes you just need a new window or door.

    We work closely with local distributors of reputable window and door brands — and can help you evaluate your options, measure, and install.

    Storm Windows & Doors

    We build, source, and install a full range of storm windows and storm doors.

  • Just ask us.

    Our favorite projects help clients fold their sources of inspiration and comfort into objects of everyday use.

  • We do excellent interior work in plaster repair and wood refinishing.

    Plaster - We use innovative methods to repair traditional lath-and-plaster, helping preserve the sense of weight and solidity that real plaster gives to a home.

    Painting - We work with a broad selection of modern and traditional coatings appropriate for older homes, including linseed oil paint and pine tar. We care about durability and long-term value.

    Wood Refinishing - We work with traditional formulations of oils, shellac, wax - as well as durable modern coatings - to nourish and protect restored woodwork.

  • Sometimes your vision means opening up walls, re-imagining spaces, or starting from scratch.

    We specialize in period-appropriate and period-influenced renovations, including residential alterations, kitchens, and bathrooms.
