Aksarben Window Works

Paint removal progresses on the Unitarian Church sash here in the shop.

A huge shoutout to Tia, our window tech who is a sash stripping extraordinaire. She’s literally the best I’ve ever seen do this. So detailed, we hardly need to sand prior to paint (but we do). She puts me to shame, and can remove paint from intricate sash work without a scratch to sand out.

In the painting world, we all know the finish can only shine if the prep is great.

If you’ve liked our work in the past, you’re going to love our work going forward, because Tia is raising the bar here at AWW, and I’m thrilled she’s on our team producing this quality.

Ditch the corporate ladder for a real ladder!

Wrapped this MonRay 500 series storm window install for amazing clients in Dundee. I think there were 45 windows on this job, so a lot of ladder work here, but really fun.

I like these storms for those who prefer aluminum because they sit near flush with standard casing, and they’re a “floating storm” in that you can move the end pieces tight to the casing before setting it. This really helps with out of square work. The custom color match turned out great.

(Pic 5) I realize it’s been a bit since our last post, hope it was worth the weight!

Have a great weekend!
