So this weekend Ed’s mom and dad were here to help (read do) some window and door replacements. We have an old house and the front bow windows really needed to be replaced and we were not sure what we were going to find when we opened up the walls. We had the siding replaced a couple of years ago and they warned us that they could see some rot, but we did not know how much. We were all worried about how extensive it would be and how much rebuilding of walls there would be. This is what we found:
I know it looks bad but it is better than it could have been. So a few new 2”by4”’s and some plywood and we were off to the races. That was such a relief for all of us.
Here is the inside with the casings off the window getting ready.
Window number two.
Window number four .
WIndows all in and now on to the siding.
I now have windows on either end that open. I very excited about having more airflow!
And they are finished!
Isn’t it beautiful!?!? I absolutely love they way that they turned out!
