We use marine paints for abrasion resistance and durability.

If you need storm window repair or new storms built email or call for an appointment.
Note that buying manufactured  new replacement windows can not often be repaired and are installed in the opening you already have- thus diminishing the size of the window and giving less light. Old windows, when properly restored and maintained are just as efficient ( with storms) and are the jewelry of your facade.
