Double Hung Historic Window Restoration was founded in 1997 by Greensboro's own David Hoggard. He and his company are committed to helping people, companies, and organizations repair their buildings' windows instead of replacing them. For those trying to keeping historic properties as authentic as possible, Double Hung provides people with a great option. Not only do they come in and restore windows, they also make storm windows so that windows are windows more energy efficient.
As we drove around town looking at older homes, we saw some with the original windows and, indeed, they are beautiful. We'll share a few below. Today is ABC Wednesday and for our A-Z Urban Finds series, "W" is for Windows. Keeping original windows isn't for everybody, but once the windows are gone, you can't get them back. The vintage windows in the photos below are beautiful!
Thanks for this. Not sure how you knew, but we have worked on every house that you presented except one. (we'll get to that one soon enough).
Great post. - David Hoggard

beautiful homes and windows...if i had 100+ year old windows, i'd keep them...i think the imperfections are wonderful! i know they aren't very energy efficient but still!
