Window Sash Repairs
Window sashes must be inspected regularly for signs of mold, mildew and other damage. By catching problems before they become serious you will save money on future repairs.
The sash is an inside frame that moves upwards and downwards in windows that are open. This article will teach you how to perform simple repairs to sash.
Weather Stripping
Wood window sashes give an elegant look to your home. If properly maintained, they will last for a long time. However, they may become damaged or deteriorate in time due to exposure to elements and normal wear and wear and tear. Fortunately, sash repair specialists can bring your windows back to their original condition and keep them looking fantastic for a longer period of time than replacement windows.
The first step to sash window repairs is addressing weather stripping, which can be found on both the sash as well as the frame. It can cause drafts if it's damaged or is loose. Begin by identifying the window brand and the manufacturer's date (etched on the glass's corners or on the aluminum spacers between panes). Remove the sash, and mark its size and width so that you can find a new weather stripping that is compatible with the original.
Then, remove the sash and set it on a work surface so you can access all four sides. If the sash is double-hung, you'll also need to remove the weights as well as the ropes that go with them that should have fallen into the intended pocket in the jamb liner. Once you've removed the sash using a utility knife, you can use it to remove the weather stripping from the corners, and then remove it by hand or using a putty blade.
When the sash is clean and clean, you can put in the parting stops. These are long pieces that split the sashes. Pam prefers to use the standard 1/2-inch by 3/4 inch window trim from the lumberyard. However, you can substitute with a scrap piece of wood.
After removing the stoppers for parting and trimming them to the desired length then apply a thin layer of glazing compound over the bottom of the sash. Smooth the compound with your putty knife, and then let it dry for at least a day. When the putty is fully cured, you can apply a topcoat of acrylic. This will protect the putty and give your sash a fresh look.
