Storm Door Restoration
This beautiful glassed in porch featured 10 French doors, each equipped with original matching storm doors. Well built and meticulously crafted, each storm fit precisely and cleanly, forming a remarkably tight fit in its frame and over the original brick floor. The quality of these doors was well work restoring. The rot was not confined to the doors only, but was widesprad throughout the window sash and frames, especially adjacent to the brick. After restoring all woodwork, we installed an EPDM moisture break between the brick and wood, previous to reinstallation, to prevent a recurrence of damage to the wood from moisture transference from the masonry.
