4010 Avenue H Window Supplement Owner Overview In purchasing 4010 Avenue H we had full knowledge of its historical status and specifically engaged an architect and GC with experience restoring older, historical homes. Our intention is to restore as much as possible and ensure the house is functional not only now but for the next several decades. In evaluating the house during the planning process, it has become apparent that the condition of the windows is incredibly poor and restoring may not be a viable option. The original windows are primed wood with a weight and pulley system. The glass is single pane. The nylon ropes are either ripped or in very weak condition throughout. The frames on the outside are rotted and the glazing is failing. There is also significant wood rotting to the grilles and rail / sash. These issues are significant and apply to every window in the house. Our hope was to find a handful of windows that could be salvaged, but all of them are in the bad shape. We’re proposing replacing these original windows with double hung aluminum clad wood windows in the same design as the existing. The home’s windows are covered by screens that the we intend to replace with similar due to significant rotting. As a result of these screens being mounted in front of the windows, the glazing on the windows is always obscured when viewing from the exterior. If we match the existing window style, mullion pattern and proportions (which we intend to do), the view of the house from the street will be unchanged.
