I am a painting contractor, working mainly on homes built in the first half of <br />the 20th century in the Sunnymede neighborhood and nearby. I have extensive experience working on <br />windows of many types. <br />Kim Bloom asked me to evaluate the windows in her home at 1130 E Wayne and I visited her home on <br />Oct 3. The house has original steel casement windows circa 1928 of medium quality in my opinion. The <br />closers and handles are of a simple design. Several handles are either missing or broken. Many panes of <br />glass are cracked. The frames and sashes are heavily rusted, glazing is crumbling or absent, and few if <br />any of the windows are functional. Several do not close fully and the gaps are filled with deteriorating <br />foam weatherstripping. Storm windows are either non-existent or a mix of exterior clip -ons or interior <br />custom made creations. <br />I don't believe that an attempt to restore these windows would be successful. From past experience I <br />know that it is impossible to locate parts for these old casements. The metal is so rusted on many of <br />them as to be unsalvageable. Any attempt to save these windows would be very expensive and <br />ultimately not worthwhile. The house is in otherwise excellent condition and top quality replacement <br />casements will enhance the exterior appeal of the house, provide significant energy savings, and allow <br />interior ventilation which is absent now. These windows have reached the end of their utility and need to <br />be replaced. <br />Thank you. <br />Mark Carney <br />phone: 236 8902 <br />file://C:\Documents and Settings\efeasel\Local Settings\Temp\XPgrpwise\543120E9Intern... 10/6/2014 <br />
