Review
"Assuming you have a reason to repair old, single-pane windows instead of replacing them with insulated glass windows, Terence Meany's "Working Windows". . . could come in handy. Meany, who calls himself Mr. Window, has some neat tricks up his sleeve. . . . "--Journal of Light Construction""Working Windows" leaves the subject of window design and installation to other authors, and instead concentrates on something more basic to homeowners: getting the windows you already have to work properly for what they were designed and installed to do."--"Woodshop News"
From the Author
The best window repair book available-honest!
After repairing thousands of wood windows in the Puget Sound area, I had a choice of becoming a window borg for the rest of my life or taking the literary high road and writing Working Windows. The high road called and the result is an intelligent, highly detailed repair manual that covers realistic situations which confront owners of old homes. Broken ropes? I'll show you how to replace them. Windows painted shut? Look inside for safe and effective ways to get them working again. Don't give up on your windows until you read this book. You won't be disappointed-and your windows will love you.
