Two sashes in one frame.
Both sashes are insulated. When you lock the window, they pull together at the middle and seal.
Lift the bottom for a breeze.
The lower sash slides up and stays where you leave it. The screen covers the whole window.
Drop the top to let heat out.
Hot air rises, so lowering the top sash lets it out. Open both a little and you get air moving through the room.
From outside.
We fit the trim to your house, whether it's siding, brick, shake or stone.
Double hung windows
The classic Ohio house window. Two sashes slide up and down in one frame, and both tilt inward so you can clean the outside glass from your living room.

How it works.
What's in the window.
Your furnace's heat hits the coating and bounces back into the room.

Where it works best.
Bedrooms
Top-down airflow lets you sleep with the window open and still have privacy.
Living rooms
The traditional look suits most Ohio homes, front or back.
Second floors
Tilt both sashes in and clean the outside glass without a ladder.
Whole houses
One style across the house keeps the outside even and the price simple.
Options.
Everything is built to order. We can go over all of this at your free measure.
Looking after it
Tilt both sashes in twice a year, wipe the glass with whatever you use now, and vacuum the sill track. There's nothing to paint.

1. We measure
We spend about an hour at your house, measure every opening, show you samples and give you a written price.

2. We build
We custom-make your windows to those measurements, which usually takes a few weeks. We'll give you a date when you order.

3. We install
Our own crew does the work. They cover your floors and furniture first, then square, seal and trim every unit.

4. We clean up
We haul away the old units and leave the house as we found it. Most homes are finished in a single day.

Double hung questions.
Double hung or single hung: is the extra cost worth it?
If you'd ever want to open the top or clean the outside of a second-floor window from indoors, yes. On a ground-floor rental or basement, single hung usually makes more sense.
Can I clean the outside from inside the house?
Yes. Both sashes tilt in, so the outside of the glass comes to you.
What is an oriel window?
A double hung with unequal sashes, split 60/40 or 70/30 instead of evenly. It moves the meeting rail out of your line of sight and suits older homes.
Can I add grids?
Yes. Grids sit between the panes, so they stay clean and you wipe flat glass.
